Aston Martin Vanquish - 1st Gen(2001 to 2007)

The first generation Aston Martin Vanquish was introduced in 2001. Designed by Ian Callum, the grand tourer is powered by a 5.9L V12 engine producing 460hp. The first generation Vanquish signaled a change for Aston Martin, as it marked the use of new manufacturing methods. These cars were still handbuilt and maintained their high levels of craftsmanship, while modernizing their construction methods. The Vanquish is also well known for its appearance in the 2002 James Bond movie "Die Another Day." Well-received and successful, the Vanquish was a great start to the new era at Aston Martin.
