Hi Guy's

Thinking about adding a 1st generation Vanquish to the stable. Just like to hear from Vanquish owners what to look out for. I know clutch is tricky.

The problem is that i live in Northern BC Canada. Aston martin is 1000 miles away! So my next question would be is the Vanquish easy to work on for a indy mechanic?

Not putting a lot of miles on her maybe 1500 a year. Ps i already own a 2007 DB9 with sports pack what a dearly love.

Cheers from a very cold part of Canada.

Thanks for all the replies! Till this day I have not found then right vanquish. The specialist tools and mechanics it very tough. I live quite remote. That being said I might pull the trigger because I only live once.

There's a bargain-priced 2003 Vanq ($50K CAD) listed on Autotrader.ca right now. It's located in the BC lower mainland, close to Vancouver.
I checked that one out. Its a rebuild! i saw the crash pics and i stay away from that one. No history etc. But i pulled the trigger on a 2004 vanq! Going to pick it up in March- April depending on snow. Where i live we have snow till April;(

Yes it was! where i live they are very rare and not easy to find. This car is coming from over 3600km away! So it will take some time for her to arrive.
