That's really quite good. Is the "hand back" valuation guaranteed? So you're protected if the car market wet into melt down and the car was only worth 60k in 2 years? If so then that's really good in my eyes.
There is an option to buy at end of contract at £89k, or just hand back.
Great deal . The option to buy might even be worth it .

Appears therefore to make the total cost = £115,400.

Do you think many contract users would buy the car, at the end of the 2 year rental period ?



The option to buy is not a good one.

Do you think the £151k vantage will be worth less than £89k in 2 years ?

Just jumped on this deal, very close to what was posted on the last page. It seemed too good to be true, especially as said the options are effectively chucked in for free. It amazed me how little the finance cost changed between a basic car and a loaded one.

I really wanted a hyper red but they didn't have any left - I also wanted the forged wheels and black pack etc so went for this - I've always loved the light blue colour on stuff from E46 M3's to the Clio 182's and older vantages.

If anyone's been to the Nottingham dealer recently, it's the car that's been in the middle of their showroom for a few weeks!





I didn't think I'd be in the market for another vantage (or ever a brand new Aston) any time soon, but I couldn't pass up on the deal. My F type has genuinely cost me around £1k a month in depreciation over the 2 years I've had it (bought secondhand!) And I have to pay for the warranty and servicing on that so even more of a no brainer!
Stunning! Love the colour. You’ve got a real bargain there.

At this rate, the number of Vantages in stock and at bargain basement prices will be minimal!

Congratulations on the blue Vantage, that's a real looker. Enjoy driving

I did look at that customer car in the Auto Trader advert, nice but wasn't for me. I think I had a quote which was more than the demo I test drove. That was nice but had a blue interior, I couldn't get my head around that. I was interested in another at the sister dealership down south, the quote I got back was way off.

Are these tiny inside?

How tall are you guys?

I'm 6'4 and don't seem to fit in many sports cars.

I’m 6’4 and lanky, I fit in Vantage and DB11 just fine. No complaints there.

These deals are excellent, I wonder how many extra they’ll shift and whether they’ll consider introducing a lower cost model to broaden the appeal? I know for me at £140k optioned up the desire wasn’t strong enough to make me buy, but £110k I viewed it in a very different light b

They are great for headroom. I am also 6’4’’ and have short legs and a long torso which is terrible for fitting in cars but have nonissue with my DB11 and have sat in but not driven the new Vantage. Can’t fit in any McLarens or most Ferrari’s so modern Aston’s are a welcome relief.

I'm not that tall - 5'10 - but 'powerfully built' and I found it nice and spacious inside. The seat goes really low and is genuinely really comfortable, even for my less than slight frame. I had loads of headroom left so figured it wouldn't be a problem for taller people.

6'2 and large, having driven both I would say you will be absolutely fine in both the new Vantage and DB11/DBS. Best way the find out of course is to go and sit in one..

I'm 5,9 not quite powerhouse built but very good looking wink In all honesty I like a low seating position but I feel too low in the Vantage so have the seat set higher than normal.

Translates to a total cost to own a £151k Aston Vantage for £26400 + £89000 = £115400...What a remarkable deal..!

Lots of manufacturers are like that nowadays. I had it with BMW and an i3 that I had. they wanted 43,000 cash (wouldn’t accept a penny less) but when you Add up the costs of leasing/govt grants and auction proceeds. it was 31,000. And that was through alphabet (Bmw in house finance)

List price is an illusion for most manufacturers now...
