Aston Martin Vantage Celebration | 75 years of Vantage and 20 years of Gaydon Vantage |17 August 2025

To celebrate 75 years of the Vantage name there will be a display of Aston Martin cars linked to the Vantage name from DB2 through to the current Vantage.

The day will also celebrate 20 years since the launch of the first Gaydon Vantage. To date, this iteration of the Vantage remains the biggest sales success in the brand’s proud history. We aim to have the largest collection of Gaydon VH2 Vantages at the event. With a display of all the individual models from the 2005 V8 Vantage through the V12 Vantage to the final Vantage to leave Gaydon.

More info and tickets from the British Motor Museum website.

It's also 25 years since the end of V8 Vantage production at Newport Pagnell.

... the final Vantage to leave Gaydon.

Now that must be interesting. Never heard of which it is/was (hopefully not one of these "600" mutations). There seems to have been no end of production celebration back then strangely.

Considering going. However the previous 3 weekends i'm heading to various Aston events as well. The country is going to run out of petrol!

I've booked and looking forward to it.

Cars been stuck in my garage for so long, so it will be nice to stretch its legs a little.

For those attending with their Vantage, you can also register with AMOC. You will then be assigned parking relevant to your car’s era and may also be assigned a place in the display line up. This is in addition to booking your entry ticket with Gaydon. See: https://www.amoc.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&c...

Thanks for that - I wouldn't have bothered with the AMOC site or registration.

As an aside, I wonder if there's an IT qualification for poorly designing registration forms?

Just over a month to go, link to book and more info.

I’d absolutely love to attend this. Not entirely practical being that I live in Sydney though.

Anyone going please take lots of photos. Thanks!
