The Production V8 Vantage Was Introduced At The Geneva Motor Show In 2005 For The 2006 Model Year. The Two Seat, Two Door Coupe Had A Bonded Aluminium Structure For Strength And Lightness And With The 4.3 V8 Power Delivery, Created An Instant Hit With The Motoring Press And Excited New Owners, However, The Introduction Also Gave Porsche A Few Worries. During The First Few Years Of This Hugely Successful Chapter For The Factory, The Company Unveiled A Concept Car Based On The V8 Vantage, Code Named The V12 Vantage RS, Before Aston Martin Presented The Production Version Simply Called The V12 Vantage In The Middle Of 2009, With This All New Aggressive Vehicle To Be Added To The Already Interesting Model Line Up, With This Vehicle To Be Viewed As The Ultimate Must-Have Aston Martin. The Cars Came From The Warwickshire Production Line With A Monster Six Litre V12 Engine, The Same Unit That Had Been Placed In Its Larger DBS Brother, With This Massive Unit Producing An Astonishing 510 BHP With A Torque Value Of 421, Which Would Easily Accelerate From 0-62 MPH In A Remarkable 4.2 Seconds, Would Further Climb To An Electrically Limited Top Speed Of 190 MPH And Was Completely Engaging With The Fabulous Six-Speed Manual Transmission. To Follow Suit With This Aggressive Power Housed Engine, The Exterior Detailing Was To Be As Equally Spectacular With The Design Team Decorating The Body With Numerous Carbon Fibre Trim Pieces And Of Course The Very Subtle Rear V12 Chromed Boot Lid Motif. The Car Was An Instant Hit With New Buyers Into This Prestigious Brand And Was Adored By Members Of The Motoring Press, Not Only For Offering Ridiculous Power, Highly Aggressive Exterior Detailing, Sublime Crafted Interiors, But Because It Was An Aston Martin, Capable Of Taking On The Infamous Porsche 911 Turbo.
