Unveiled at the 2001 Geneva Motor Show, the Ian Callum designed Vanquish was an instant sales success and its choice of transport for James Bond only added to the appeal. Every car enthusiast throughout the world wanted the successor to the Virage. The 6.0 litre, V12 produced engine pushed out 450bhp, mated to a 'flappy paddle' electro-hydraulic manual gearbox, fly by wire throttle and, of course, looks to die for! It was no surprise that the car was the top of the Aston Martin range throughout its seven years of production. The Aston Martin legend as the ultimate British sportscar was set to continue.

Presented in a timelessly aggressive all-black colour combination, this 2003 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish represents the pinnacle of early 2000s British grand touring excellence. Beneath its muscular, Ian Callum-designed aluminium bodywork resides the legendary 5.9 litre naturally aspirated V12 engine, delivering effortless performance paired with an iconic exhaust note. This particular example features an entirely stealth-specification black exterior matched with a premium black leather interior, complete with all its original and usual factory fittings. Having had seven owners from new, it has been driven sparingly and fastidiously maintained, showing just over 36,000 miles on the odometer.

Crucially, the vehicle is accompanied by a highly detailed and comprehensive service portfolio that documents its maintenance from day one. Its early life is anchored by official Aston Martin main dealer servicing, including its run-in inspection at the marque's headquarters in Gaydon before transitioning to recognised, top-tier independent Aston Martin specialists including Christian Lewis and AV Engineering in more recent years.
