Might there be a period of no Vantage production?
Discussion
There is widespread talk on several topics, about no more orders being taken for new Vantages.
Also a comment about next Monday, being the deadline for current orders to be specced.
If production of the present model is going to end immediately before the factory holiday in August, then perhaps there is a planned period of no Vantage production.
New models are traditionally always announced at major motor shows. The next being Frankfurt in September. Aston Martin usually announce their new models well before the customer deliveries begin.
The possibility of no Vantages being built for several months, just seems rather odd.
However, perhaps if the DB11 orders are still strong, then production of those will be increased. After all, every Aston Martin built counts as a sale, irrespective of which model it is.

I'm sure they will drag out the build of the 300 AMR Vantages for many many months - I can see it easily going into 2018 for the last few cars...Also a comment about next Monday, being the deadline for current orders to be specced.

That reference was for MY2017 additional models recently announced. The AMR cars are MY2018 and will be built in the last few months of this year and may be into next year.Also a comment about next Monday, being the deadline for current orders to be specced.

They then have the Volante version of the DB11 coming out and the V8 version from what I have heard. It could be the the Volante starts as a V8.
They closed the line that the DB11 is built on for a number of months to get it ready for DB11 production and that may be the case with the Vantage line. If that is right where is the Vanquish built?
