38 Supercar Fest Sale of Iconic and Classic Cars 2023 - Cars Registration: X36 XJO Chassis No.: SCFAC23391B50PP09 Estimate: £100,000 - £115,000 Lot 813 2001 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish - Pre-Production #PP09 - 642km By 1998, and with Aston Martin’s future secured by the success of the DB7, the intention to create an all new Aston Martin ‘supercar’ for the 21st century was launched under the codename ‘Project Vantage’. It aimed to continue the Aston tradition of brutish good looks and blistering performance whilst showcasing the direction that Aston was taking. Penned by Ian Callum and drawing inspiration from the DB4 Zagato, the concept car’s aggressive stance evolved directly into the V12 Vanquish. It featured an advanced carbon fibre and alloy structure whilst Aston Martin’s most powerful V12 engine to date propelled the car from 0 to 60mph in under five seconds. Only available with a 6-speed automated manual transmission, the interior, whilst still trimmed in the finest leather, saw the wood veneers replaced with brushed aluminium. The Vanquish was Aston’s flagship between 2001 and 2007 and was the last model to be produced at the Newport Pagnell Works. With its status confirmed by the Aston Martin Heritage Trust and the aforementioned factory records accompanied by a signed letter from Aston Martin Works, this car’s provenance is unquestioned. Offering the unique opportunity of owning a virtually brand new 2001 V12 Vanquish showing delivery mileage, this beautifully presented and historically important motorcar is worthy of any collection, with an estimate that should draw serious attention. Confirmed by the Aston Martin Heritage Trust as one of the earliest examples currently road registered and the V5C states Aston Martin Lagonda as the first and only keeper.
