Find your perfect Vantage

Cars available now

The Vantage is Aston Martin’s best sports car to date, providing a thrilling drive and a classy interior. It’s not quite as capable on the limit as a Porsche 911, but there’s no doubt the Vantage provides a great sense of theatre for the money.

There’s only one trim level for the Vantage and it comes with 21in alloy wheels, matrix LED headlights, heated leather sports seats, dual-zone climate control, adaptive cruise control and keyless ignition.

The Vantage's 4.0-litre V8 petrol engine is sourced from Mercedes-AMG but has been reworked to produce 656bhp and 590lb ft of torque. That’s enough to get it from 0-62mph in 3.5sec and on to a top speed of 202mph. Power is delivered to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
