Vanquish Residuals

[Calculator]

Apologies if this has been covered previously, but what is the consensus on Vanquish residuals?

I was surprised to hear they can be had for not much more than £100k from a main dealer. To me, this looks like a lot of car for the money and I'd imagine a reasonably safe proposition from a value perspective. A combination of the great looks, V12 engine and pricing of the DB11 and new Vantage (£115-120k) should support this?

Not expecting free motoring on an non limited edition car but be interesting to hear views!

agree in many ways they are excellent value at that level

I think the introduction of the 8 speed and then the S, which in each instance were not unsimilarly priced to their predecessor, has created a hierarchy of second hand prices though. If you think what an S costs new, then discount against that for a used S, then discount again for a used 8 speed non-S, you can see why the 6 speeds are priced where they are

But given it doesn't appear like it's going to be round for long in an guise and will always be the flagship n/a V12 GT, one assumes it will hold it's value - a £100k Vanquish is magnificent value against an auto box DBS or a late DB9 GT IMO.

Personally I'd still have a manual DBS though :-)

I imagine it will be an investment long term, not sure a 6 speed will be but an 8 speed and certainly an S will be, Last ever N/A flagship AM will mean something for sure. Can't imagine the lower end 6 speed can possibly drop much more though. Even if it does a £200k+ car for £100k seems a good buy!

Thanks both, interesting to hear your thoughts. As I say, I'm not expecting this to be an investment but hopefully a sensible choice financially.

I have been tracking Vanquish prices in Autotrader for a few months and they will continue to decline under £100k looking at the depreciation curve £100k cars will be £85k next year. Pressure will further come from DB11 and new Vantage.

Well there you go. Mystic Munky has spoken! Please tell me who will win the premier league so I can bet my house on it

I do hope so (sorry owners!) as an £85k car next spring would be a no brainer!

This is an interesting comparison for those watching Vanquish prices;

2017 DB11 3,000 miles £153,000

2016 Vanquish 2,000 miles £150,000
http://www.dicklovett.co.uk/aston-martin/used-cars...


At a slightly lower price point;

2016 DB11 7,000 miles £142,000

2015 Vanquish 7,000 miles £142,000
http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2017...

It seems the Vanquish is holding its value well against the DB11 which is arguably a significant step forward.
