    After a very solid ownership, it is time for my Aston Martin Vanquish Volante to be unwrapped and prepared to find a new home. Having initially been bought to take part in Where's Shmee and then Fuel Faction DUE, it has served its purpose perfectly but with the AMG GT R and Porsche GT3 inbound in the near future, it has become superfluous to requirements. Benzene and I jump into both of the V12s from the garage, including the Ferrari FF, to head over to Dub Customs to drop it off. Will you miss it too?

      Shmee150 ,hope u will get another vanquish anytime in the future again because I bet u will miss the V12 from that car because Aston Martin does not build the world greatest car but there have the world best sounding car.

    Out of all your cars, this is the car I'd love to own. British GT with a wonderful V12 and it's a convertible! Gonna miss this machine.

    • @shiznuts
      @shiznuts 7 років тому +1

      Amen brother. The one I'd buy first if I'd win the lottery, it's got so much going for it. V12. Roaring sound. Classy look, sexy too. Top comes down. 2+2 & otherwise plenty of space to be a GT. Like... maybe it's not the most exotic or performance driven/track focused car, but this is not a toy, the Aston is a lifestyle companion.

      Shakil Ahmed It's interesting how Britain sells the most convertibles per capita than anywhere else considering its weather.

    Great video Tim - great to see two good friends enjoying a great if slightly bittersweet day out - the Vanquish is such a lovely car and Bens eulogy on the journey to Dub was really well done. Well done to you both and farewell to the Vanquish - gone but never forgotten!👍👍

  • @humphreybradley3060
    @humphreybradley3060 7 років тому +4

    I agree with Ben, when you drive an Aston Martin you feel as though you represent the brand & Britain, it's quite a patriotic experience! As strange as it may sound, it actually makes you drive in a different manner!

    Can't believe you walked by the Sagaris and the Tuscan. There are a lot of us TVR fanboys around still including myself. Huge fan of TVR's. Will miss the Vanquish. Good times, good memories. Thank you for sharing them with us, Tim and Ben.

    By far the most legendary and elegant gayden droptop grand tourer I've ever seen in these videos though I've yet to see one on the roads especially with those curves and diamond cut lines. Poised to stand out from the crowd. My dream car would definitely be an Aston Martin v12 vantage or the vanquish volante but in dark blue. Definitely served its purpose and time on and off the roads.

    Sad to see that beautiful car go. It was the perfect GT car, and i really wish I'd seen you take it down to the Cote d'Azure or Monaco. Sure the GT3 and AMG GTR might be faster, but neither of them are as classy or timelessly elegant as the car you've just given up.
