Vanquish S Front Splitter

[bentley01]

If my old 2015 Vanquish managed the incline of my driveway to courtyard without any massive issues how much should I worry about a Vanquish S. To give more information I used to back it in but it would drive out without scraping. My 650s can get out slowly without lift activated. Any advice would be appreciated.

On paper the Vanquish is " higher " than the Mac but its the overhang of that extended front splitter versus the incline and necessary approach angle.
My GT8 with the extended aero and splitters is lower than the Mac's but its how you approach the " obstacle " ie at the right angle and speed that counts although obviously going into a garage isn't quite the same as being on the open road !
I had the underneath of the front splitters covered in ppf which although there a couple of small indentations on seems to have coped with anything pretty well.
Maybe try and find a friendly dealer to let you test putting one in your garage ?

Prior to buying my 2018 Vanquish S Volante in 2024, I asked the dealer to bring it to my honme and see if it would be OK over the slopes in my drive. I offered to pay the costs involved if the Vanquish S's front spoiler was going to bottom out. Fortunately it was OK and I bought the Vanquish S. I did the same with an Audi A5 Quattro in 2021. Both dealers were fine

Thanks both I think you are correct I need to try and see if one gets down the drive. Not easy when there are so few for sale.
