Volcano Red Vanquish

[Tyndall]

The Volcano Red 8 spd Vanquish at HR Owen Cheltenham has really caught my eye and got me tapping away on my man-maths calculator. It'd be my first AM, something I've long lusted after.

Any thoughts on this car in particular? It seems at the higher end price-wise for a non-S coupe but I want a colour and so few seem to come up in the main dealer network that maybe there's a bit of a premium loaded for that. In the photos the plastic surrounding the air vents on the interior looks a bit 'plasticky'. Is this the case in real life or just the angle of the photo?

Any and all advice gratefully received!

I'm a fan of that colour, too - but I can only find a DB9 fitting that description on their site, unless I'm missing something (which is often the case...)

Vent surrounds are metal.

One things for sure, they're a great car and very adictive. I absolutely love mine.

Thanks - very good to know, just the photo that was throwing me then.

Volcano Red - the only colour to have

That is a bit toppy but it does also look mint

I’ve owned a Volcano Red 8 speed Vanquish since 2017 & still love it. I’ve had no issues with it all, it been flawless. Here’s mine;

[GTSJOE]

The Vanquish is such an underrated car, the F12 is somewhat responsible as it was the car of choice for any discerning V12 GT buyer. Fast forward a few years, Vanquish is now circa £100,000 for a stunning non S 8 sped car. Such incredible value for a carbon fibre bodied, NA engined work of art!
Love mine… 2017 8 speed in Mariana Blue!

The colour looks much brighter in the ad, very nice though. They are great value though.

[AstonZagato]

Vanquishes are possibly the best car AM have ever made in terms of looks and driving experience. I still haven't found anything that would tempt me from my Ultimate.

[Tyndall]

I agree they are absolutely drop dead gorgeous - you owners are very lucky people! Off to see one at the weekend and hope to be joining the club!

saw a nice vantage AMR v12v s in Italia, 628ps so some good things, then I looked the pictures, no bucket seats (also not a manual), such a shame, the price was good for such car, also such power package.
its a CHINA GRAY car.

They didn't do a Manual Vanquish and China Grey is a rare colour, Only 3 Volantes here in the UK Here's mine

Lovely! Number plate looks good - have you had any issues and were there screw holes or anything to fill?

What did you do plate-wise at the rear?

I saw this too. Absolutely stunning. The most beautiful car in the most beautiful colour. Buy it (then please try to remember my details for when you come to sell it as I may have the money by then !)

Looks fantastic, haven’t seen a China grey Vanquish, is it a non metallic paint?

Front plate is attached using 3M tape. Rear plate is standard size. No issues with exposed holes.
