Decades after a boyhood ride in a British roadster, a veteran aviator now enjoys freedom on four wheels. When Tom Grant bought a 1953 MG TD convertible several years ago, he was fulfilling a dream that began when he was only…
The Vantage name first appeared in the early 1950s as a high-output engine option for the DB2, and for decades it denoted the most potent version of Aston's cars. In 2005 the V8 Vantage became a model in its own right, a compact, beautifully proportioned two-seater designed to lure buyers away from the Porsche 911, and it became one of the best-selling Astons ever. It spawned V12 versions, roadsters and racing cars that won at Le Mans and around the world.
The current generation arrived in 2018 with a twin-turbocharged V8 sourced from Mercedes-AMG and a bolder, more aggressive design that divided opinion. A heavily revised version followed in 2024, with significantly more power, a much improved interior and sharper styling that drew far warmer reviews. Enthusiasts praise its handling, its noise and the sense that it feels like a proper sports car rather than a softened grand tourer. Critics note that it is pricier than many rivals and that the cabin remains tight.
The Vantage is offered as a coupe and a roadster, and a more powerful S version and a track-focused model seen testing with aggressive aerodynamics extend the range. It competes with the Porsche 911, Mercedes-AMG GT, Chevrolet Corvette and the junior Ferraris and McLarens. Its racing versions remain a fixture in GT3 and endurance racing, and limited editions often trade on the Vantage's long racing history. That bloodline gives the road car credibility that few rivals can buy.
Old Vantages also have a lively second life. The coverage collected here includes reviews and comparisons, new versions and spy shots, track and racing news, limited editions, used and classic Vantage values, including V12 models and rare manual-transmission versions, and the occasional unfortunate tale of a Vantage driven straight into a flooded street. For buyers of a new one, the Vantage remains the most direct route into an Aston Martin that feels genuinely sporting, and the car on which the brand stakes much of its reputation with drivers.
Aston Martin's sharpest sports car, a front-engined twin-turbo V8 coupe and roadster aimed at the Porsche 911, with S and track-focused versions.
