Aston Martin introduced the long-awaited vantage version of their successful DB7 in 1999. sporting a cosworth designed, 5. 9 litre v12 producing a creamy 420bhp, the car was super-quick and was electronically limited to 185mph. The V12 had a serious appetite for air compared to its 6-cylinder predecessor, demanding a larger intake and other modifications to the frontal airflow were made to aid cooling. Other changes included chassis and braking upgrades to cope with the increased performance, and Ian Callum enlarged the grille, added fog lamps, and restyled the valances to give the car a more purposeful look. The vantage interior leather trim was cut and sewn at a special trim shop at Newport Pagnell, where the carpet and wood veneers were also prepared. The 5. 9 litre V12 vantage volante, costing £120, 000 at its launch, remained in production until 2004.
The car has an Aston Martin sport exhaust; wooden steering wheel and gear stick head.
