DB11 AM Fleet.


On the DB11 pic the outer vents have added vanes, top pic doesnt. Could well be the Vantage?

Is that a serious post above ?

EDIT: Not yours Tim, the one above. Which are both clearly of DB11. The query is about the vents - assume it's just an option as V8 only has 2 vents

Yes there's a Vanquish behind of course !

Why clearly? Look at the outer vents on a DB11. It as additional vanes.
DB11

Then look at the Twitter pic....

Now if im wrong and its a DB11 then ill stand corrected.

Edited to add...come to think of it the Perreli car seemed to have no vents so ill shut up....ignore the above cant be bothered to delete it all.

I've just checked the website - vanes are an option on DB11

The reason 'clearly' is that DB11 bonnet has a lot of unusual lines on it, repeated in both photos - it's 'clearly' (to me) the same part

The Twitter pic has no indent in the middle of the bonnet like the DB11's. It may well be a teaser of the new Vantage!
Top of the headlights is slightly different too.
These are a bit smaller on the Twitter pic.

Firstly, the Headlights are clearly DB11 Headlights.

Secondly there is a bonnet crease, zoom in and you can see it. Thirdly that's clearly a DB11 interior with rear seats.

Can we move on?

It has been mentioned that the car photo (above the DB11) is shown on Twitter.
I don't know, but might that mean an official AML Twitter tease photo?

Several of you have already commented, and I cannot believe I have spotted something that has been missed, but the outer sides of the bonnet are higher than the centre. It has usually been the other way around, however not on the Vulcan. The CEO has already said the new Vantage has elements of DB10 and Vulcan, so my conclusion is that the photo is of the new Vantage.

Aston is launching one model every year. DB11 was last year so Vantage must be this year.

Yes, you are probably right.
I must get my eyesight checked. My optician has some new sight charts to help me. wink

I've had a very long few days. A marathon walked around Frankfurt (ok almost, 39km over 3 days) and little sleep. Sorry

Hope the new Vantage would not have 4 vents in the hood like the DB11. Because they are really not attractive.
