Description
2016 Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Spitfire Edition
Built and delivered in 2016, the Spitfire edition of the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S we are proud to offer, is 1 of 8 devised and crafted by Aston Martin’s ‘Q’ division, exclusively sold through Aston Martin Cambridge, in celebration of the 80th anniversary of the Supermarine Spitfire airplane, an icon of British engineering achievement.
Each example was hand finished in specially created Duxford Green Pearlescent paintwork with Kestrel Tan hide and Black Alcantara interiors. With, exquisitely detailed Spitfire inspired special features, combining to create a highly evocative homage to the beloved icon which is the Supermarine Spitfire. 1 of 8 examples, this one being equipped with the 7-speed manual transmission, each car was delivered to its first owner at the spiritual home of the Spitfire, former RAF airfield, Imperial War Museum Duxford, during an emotionally charged handover ceremony.
Now, having covered merely 1, 650 miles from new, with maintenance carried out annually by Aston Martin, regardless of the minimal mileage, this evocative car is presented in exceptional condition throughout. A complete list of the inspired and detailed Spitfire edition special features, too many to describe in this presentation, is available on request.
The synergy of the Iconic Spitfire and the illustrious Aston Martin V12 Vantage S could not be clearer, both powered by a large and enigmatic V12 engine, aluminium alloy construction, visibly stealthy and brutally beautiful in appearance, dominant and highly effective in operation, the Supermarine Spitfire and the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Spitfire edition, could not be more aligned, albeit engineered and constructed with a different intended purpose.
Supplied with its full compliment of bespoke Spitfire accessories, including a unique Irvin flying jacket with Spitfire 80 logo, Irvin Flying Helmet & Flying Goggles, bespoke Green/ Brown car cover, Kestrel Tan Owner’s Manual with embossed Spitfire 80 Logo, Build Book and Key Pouch in Kestrel Tan.
Destined to become, if not already, a highly prized special edition of one of Aston Martin’s most successful models.
Available for viewing and demonstration now at our Hertfordshire showrooms.
