It's not a S, they didn't start making them until 2004.

You are asking for a value on a car, you don't even know what it is.

Personally I would touch it, a Vanquish with problems, could cost you a small fortune to put right.

If its been off the road for a few years and has gearbox problems then without an inspection - avoid!
Gearbox may be something as 'simple' as the early sensors being upgraded to the later version. But even thats a gearbox out job and must be done by a trained specialist.
Could need a complete new gearbox.
Is the front subframe corroding?

If you are not familiar with the Vanquish, its easy to spot an S as the front brake calipers are in front of tha axle. Non S ones are behind the axle.
Unless its a non S with the Sports Dynamic Pack upgrade! wink
First S was not available until 2005.

A vanquish is a beautiful car to drive when it is in good working order. If anything goes wrong on it however, especially to do with engine, gears, or bodywork you may need to befriend your bank manager for life to help you out.

2001 will be one of the first V12 Vanquish cars. I would be cautious of an early car without any issues; one with is a no-go. It may depend on what it is being offered for. I suspect a figure with more than three digits though, so I would walk. If someone is badging a 2001 car as a Vanquish S, I would also run.

Visible difference between a V12 Vanquish and Vanquish S are different grille, wheels, front splitter, rear boot lid, different levels of corrosion, interior (plus brakes - bar SD option as mentioned above).

Yeah.... Way to much..... Offer £500 quid innit And he'll snatch your hand off bro... In fact, why not tell him you'll take it away if he gives you £500 instead that'd be bhin......then you can part it out, whatever that may be

Either the bargain of the century or just the start of the moneypit.
Have seen them advertised with over £30k's of bills in a year.

If you don't buy let me know ill take it for for £10.5k.
The parts alone are worth more!

Tbh I'd just strip it out, have a full racing spec rebuild and track the hell out of it!
A proper heavyweight track vanq! Mental!


Actually...
I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole, that was nailed to another barge pole that was being held by an extremely long armed man....

Knackered or not, unless he's a functioning retard he'll want £30k for it.

It's worth more than that in parts.

It's not that bashed up one tat was being offered by a dealer as a clean title a while back?

Even with a clutch required £10k is a steal.

Be interesting to see exactly how much you get it for.
Is it based in the UK? Auction or personal sale?
