Hi

Any opinions on this vehicle, never had an aston before, but always admired the DBS and Vanquish...

Nice looking thing. It'll be a six (rather than 8 speed) at that age, not a dealbreaker but won't be quite as relaxed at cruise and slower than the later versions.

What would put me off is that according to JCT's own site (https://www.jct600.co.uk/used-cars/aston-martin-vanquish-v12-22-2dr-touchtronic-auto-coupe-black-automatic-petrol/id-1212530323/) it has 5 previous owners. It is a good £10k cheaper than the next cheapest approved though.

mines just gone on sale at Bristol AM. Gutted to see it go, but having a change of pace with a 600LT Spider.

I've had 2, both 2016 models, so 8 speed. I think it's one of the best looking and sounding cars out there and likely will go back into one in the future.

I've had nothing but good experiences with them from daily driving to European tours with Supercar Driver.

Great cars.

It has the quilted seat inserts which are more desirable and also the carbon waterfall dash which wont attract the dust like the piano black option. Personally black/black isnt my favourite colour combo, and finally it's a 6 speed box, but it is well priced.

That is a lot of car for the money. I had no idea they were that reasonable. That’s got me thinking..
