Het verhaal achter deze collectible...
The Aston Martin Vanquish: a car so British that the windscreen wipers probably spray tea. It is the “brute in a suit” that showed the world a V12 orchestra sounds better than any pop album ever could. According to the gentlemen of Top Gear, this was the car that put Aston Martin back on the map. A symphony of aluminium and leather that travels faster than a rumour in an English village. This is not transport; it is a mechanical fist in a velvet glove.
This particular 2004 example (VIN: SCFAC233348501425) is the absolute Holy Grail for any purist. In 2008, the masters of Aston Martin Works Service were flown from England to the United States to carry out an official factory conversion to a manual gearbox on site. No messing about with outdated paddles, but a proper, full-blooded manual conversion, including an uprated clutch, a shorter 4.3:1 hypoid differential, and a switchable sports exhaust. The total investment in this mechanical perfection exceeded £45,817 at the time.
With just 26,527 miles on the odometer and a sun-drenched Californian history, this V12 is in a condition most can only dream of. The car is fully documented, with all invoices present. In addition to its brute performance, it features a high-quality audio/visual upgrade with touchscreen and navigation, bringing comfort and usability fully up to modern standards. This is a rare opportunity to own a manual-shift legend that not only drives like a dream, but also represents an exceptionally strong investment.
