2017 Aston Martin V8 Vantage S

“The most impressive aspect is the cohesion that now characterises the driving experience… the S makes several leaps forwards in all sorts of directions; it’s sharper AND more refined; quicker yet more civilised; better to listen to at full chat but less intrusive ambling on a light throttle.” – Steve Sutcliffe (Autocar)

Featuring a tuned version of the naturally aspirated 4.7-litre V8 developing 430 bhp and 490 Nm of torque, the V8 Vantage S offers exceptional in-gear acceleration for a searing sense of urgency. Thanks to sporting suspension settings and a responsive steering rack it has the reactions to match, while a competition derived floating disc front brake system complete with large discs and six-piston calipers ensure immense stopping power for absolute confidence. Improved performance over the standard model also meant a top speed increase from 180mph to 189mph.
