Launched in 2001, the Aston Martin Vanquish marked a defining moment for the marque, ushering in a new era of modern Aston Martin design and engineering. Developed under Ford ownership and the last generation of Aston assembled at the historic Newport Pagnell headquarters, the Vanquish became the brand’s flagship grand tourer, combining a 5. 9-litre naturally aspirated V12 with aluminium and carbon-fibre construction derived from Aston Martin’s motorsport ambitions. Immortalised on screen as James Bond’s car of choice in Die Another Day, the Vanquish quickly established itself as one of the most iconic Aston Martins of the modern age — a true halo model that blended traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge performance. With its analogue V12 powertrain, limited production numbers and landmark status within Aston Martin’s history, the Vanquish is now widely tipped as a future collector car of growing significance.
First supplied on 16 April 2003 via JCT600 Leodis Court to its first owner, this particular Vanquish is presented in the desirable combination of Tour de France Blue with Parchment leather interior. The car benefits from a generous specification including heated seats, heated front screen, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, body-colour door handles, grey brake calipers, CD multichanger and 2+0 seating.
Purchased by the current owner on 19 August 2015 from McGurk Performance Cars for £59, 850, at that time having covered 45, 700 miles, the car has been clearly cherished throughout the last 11 years, with just 9, 287 miles added during this period. Servicing and maintenance have been carried out regularly, primarily by McGurk Performance Cars.
During the current ownership the Vanquish has benefitted from significant investment. In June 2021 the car received a replacement gearbox magnetic sensor and pump, along with a new exhaust centre section, at a cost of £7, 146. 60. In February 2023 new chrome side strakes were fitted, and between late 2023 and early 2024 both the upper and lower suspension arms, together with shocks and bushes, were replaced. In January 2025 the car benefited from replacement aluminium wheel arch brackets. Most recently, between November and December 2025, the car underwent a PTEC replacement carried out by renowned specialist David Such of V12Vanquish. com at a cost of over £2, 000.
It is also worth noting that in previous ownership the car benefitted from an upgraded gearbox wiring harness and a replacement clutch carried out by Oselli in March 2013, alongside further works that totalled in excess of £8, 455.
Now showing a very usable 54, 987 miles and with its MOT valid until 22 August 2026, this superb Aston Martin is offered for sale by Klasiko ready for its next owner to enjoy.
The car is accompanied by a comprehensive history file. Included is the all-important aluminium owner’s guide, complete with an impressive 20 service stamps – all from Aston Martin main dealers or highly regarded specialists. Also present is a large collection of previous invoices, MOT certificates and the current V5C document confirming just four former keepers.
