Should I Upgrade to a Vanquish S?

The Vanquish S is Aston Martin's flagship super-GT and since buying my 'regular' Vanquish I have been pondering the upgrade path. Now it's time to let my car go, I headed to Aston Martin Edinburgh to go out for a spin in their Vanquish S Coupe to see what the changes are all about. What do you think, should the new S be added to my garage in the future?
With a slightly revised visual and aerodynamic appearance, highlighted by contrasting accents and quad tailpipes, the Vanquish S takes power up to 603PS from 576PS (retaining the 630Nm torque) from the 6 litre V12, while adding in a little more noise thanks to new intake manifolds and some additional tweaks around the car.
One of the beautiful things about taking such a stunning car for a test drive, is the wonderful roads that can be found throughout Scotland with endless opportunities to enjoy such a car. Thanks goes to AM Edinburgh and the Leven Car Company for the opportunity to drive their car:

Answer is heart felt yes, but can you cope with the depreciation ?

@Shmee150 7 лет назад

Somebody got straight to the kicker! Very true

@RogerBaileyOnCars 7 лет назад

watching this vid again and I'd get one, only here once and all that.

@Kurisu91 7 лет назад

Shmee150 oh God the vanquishes deprecates like a rock I swear. The first year you will loose 100k usd then the second year just go ahead and chop an extra 50k or more from the value. Buying a vanquish is literally like throwing away 150k in the trash hahahahahw

@richjohn9356 7 лет назад

Bought an Vanquish volante at the beginning of summer ,just selling it back to the dealer in late August ,loss £1,000, better than a fiesta, and what a car, loved it so much my S has just been delivered to a different dealer. They are producing very few S's. They will not loose heavily, especially the volutes, in my opinion

@F1ll1nTh3Blanks 7 лет назад

Richard John agreed they may not depreciate in value too much because, let's face it this is the last naturally aspirated general production car they make but what if a limited Vanquish AMR arrives that means this one gets a kicking surely?

@jeduardoslb1 7 лет назад

At 4:53 I found myself wondering what wheels were in the red Fiesta... I love the Aston, but I got bored...

@Proeli0 7 лет назад

I really wouldn't swap the vanquish for the vanquish s , it is way too similar. Go for some bigger changes and maybe for some new experiences.

@Shmee150 7 лет назад

I am agreeing or now, hence my Vanquish is going and the AMG GT R arrive to replace it for now.

@willmay3713 7 лет назад

When is your AMG due to arrive?

@chabbysrides 7 лет назад

Great video Tim. I love the Aston's. Definitely a used one after it has had its big depreciation.

@MRVSKIN 7 лет назад

Hi Tim. That car is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME. I would whole heartedly go for the Vanquish S. the sound the look and the quality. Also the last Vanquish to be naturally aspirated. That sound. Oh my goodness. If I had the opportunity then I would jump at the chance and the first run would be in Scotland on the famous 500.

@jorammuntinga2197 7 лет назад

But than the main question is: is this car that much of an upgrade from your vanquish? I think it isnt, and it is not as special as your blackbadge series vanquish.

@Shmee150 7 лет назад

I think there's a point in that, it's not 'that much' of an upgrade, for potentially a lot of money

@jameslovett8697 7 лет назад

Id just get a different exhaust for the vanquish instead of going for the s.

@NaikMichel 7 лет назад

He's getting greased by Aston Martin, they are buttering him for promotion of products existing and new cars, which is fair enough, he does a good job at promoting their cars fairly without too much bias. Shmee has always been good to manufacturers over the last 6 years i've watched him, keeps all reviews even :)

@elitegr4n7 7 лет назад

@mhopfenbeck 7 лет назад

Hello Shmee, With you having many upcoming cars arriving (ford gt, merc gt-r, porsche gt3...) are you planning on expanding your current car collection or will you be selling current cars and replacing them with the ones you have ordered?

@sultanqasim 4 года назад

The sounds at 8:30 onwards are amazing. The transmission’s shifts do seem noticeably quicker and crisper than older VH platform models too. Not as quick as a Ferrari F12, but more than quick enough, and it lets you keep your foot down longer to legally enjoy the power and sound longer than you could on a Ferrari.

@martinoberg4907 7 лет назад

Loved being able to listen to the engine noise Tim - it's a beautiful thing. Not sure if you need this car in your garage though ???

Hi Tim, this is Nick from Porto, Portugal. I'm looking to buy a Ferrari 599 GTB, I've made an offer on one. Unfortunately the exterior colour on the car I'm negotiating is not to my liking (Grigio). I'm considering wrapping it after I purchase it. Just as a term of comparison, what was the cost of wrapping your FF?

how does the gauge cluster on a 300,000$ 2018 super car look like something out of a toyota corolla?

Shmee any opinions on the McLaren P15?

@Breakinlife007 7 лет назад

Buy one for sure! This time do the blue extras vs the entire care in your normal blue.

@vjvgtu 7 лет назад

In my humble opinion, I think an upgrade to the aston martin vanquish s would be too little of a change when compared to the vanquish carbon edition you have at the moment. As a regular viewer, I would love to see something more distinct as a successor to your vanquish. Ever thought about the mercedes sls or the new bentley supersports for example? For me this would be more interesting to see on your channel as it is more of a change. However, the vanquish s has the brilliant sounding v12 and just looks stunning! Anyway, keep up the good work! Enjoying it as always!

@northwestern492 7 лет назад

Nice dealership in Edinburgh park u can get a brilliant shot of a Aston from the stairs in the showroom

@reset1101 7 лет назад

That car with the entertainment system of the DB11 would be perfect. I would sell my house to have a car with that sound in a heartbeat

@Marks_Piano 7 лет назад

No man! I love you shmee and you're spending so much on all these cars yet you never have time to drive them, you're always on the road driving the most awesome cars in the world, driving cars that have been lent to you, press releases, etc etc. Just get a good daily, and something nice on the side like your mini or the morgan 3-wheeler and you're good! :) I know some of these cars don't depreciate but honestly you don't need 6 cars if you're never home haha.

@christiandegn1296 7 лет назад

@andrewwolkowich 2 года назад

I told my late wife a bit before she passed away. That maybe we should pick up an Aston Martin second hand. As wouldn't the drives back and forth to her doctor's appointments in hospitals be far more enjoyable in an Aston Martin then in the back of an ambulance. It made her laugh. If I had an Aston Martin even if it was not in running condition I would sit in the driveway in it and make vroom vroom sounds.

@darshilbagadia 7 лет назад

What is the best sounding v12 for you, btw amazing video.

@Shmee150 7 лет назад

Seriously tough call between the 6l Aston and the 6.3/6.5l Ferrari, I don't know.

@Markipedia 7 лет назад

looks stunnig in that grey but i´d rather wait for a "dbs-Version" of the db11

Hey Shmee - for the record, James Bond did drive a Vanquish in Die Another Day. Or as Q liked to call it - the “Vanish”

@Shmee150 7 лет назад

Yes indeed, and in this video I talk a lot more about that

@morganpritchard5632 7 лет назад

Nice video

@SwedishGamer322SG322 7 лет назад

I love how much of a businessman you are Tim. You bought the Volante for a purpose, it's now served that purpose and now you're selling it to get (at least some of) your money back instead of holding on to it and letting the value of it decrease.

@phucnguyenthidiem3868 6 лет назад

sound great !

The center console is actually marble carbon fiber, which shimmers quite lovely in the sunshine

@akmaldanial8979 7 лет назад

Big fan of vanquish but that is minor changes from regular vanquish, so how about the price on vanquish s?

@harveybjackson203 Год назад

Been looking at a 2014 model, think after your review I will bring it home.

@anthonysmith4148 7 лет назад

My absolute dream car is a Vanquish S Volante. This is a MUST for your fleet

@alexanderbarr 7 лет назад

The exhaust valves do no react to the steering. Its the idle changing slightle due to the power steering pump working harder when the steering wheel is turned to pump fluid to one side of the rack or the other and causes a slight draw on the engine which in turn is heard as an audible change in engine note due to the idle decrease.

@smartfreddy2125 7 лет назад

This color is amazing.

@user-tt1uw1pi5t 7 лет назад

OH SHMEE YES PLEASE !!! THAT V12 SOUND IS OUT OF THIS WORLD ....

@charliechetwood2358 7 лет назад

Definitely buy one! But I'd wait for values do go down a bit

@DreamList 7 лет назад

Tim please when you press down the gas pedal stop talking I want to hear the beautiful music that car makes!

@rthomson1197 7 лет назад

If you watch the video with automatic captions, when Shmee isn't talking, it recognises the engine sound as "music", which to me seemed quite appropriate!

@mr.e0311 6 лет назад

I never thought I'd be able to afford an AM Vanquish but now that I can I really am not certain if I want one. It has been a childhood infatuation of mine too.

@jeffreyoldham55 7 лет назад

Beautiful car, but what madness led AM to place the hood-release lever in the passenger footwell? Flip your Vanquish if you must, Tim, but I hope you never relinquish your GT8.

@stephenphoenix-roberts9447 7 лет назад

First thoughts before watch all video is yes do it but converable so it's a all round like your current vanquish.

@StockiGTI 7 лет назад

That Plate makes my Day !!! SKI7 DYY = SKIT DAY xD

@groovymotion5706 7 лет назад

I know the FF has more cargo but why keep the FF and get a Vanquish S when you also have the Vantage GT8?

@emmanouiljohncalderon2247 6 лет назад

how much?

@kaneholmes8860 7 лет назад

Will the new Vanquish have an NA V12 up front or will it be the Twin Turbo V8? Because if it is the V8, it won't be worth over 100K

@swiss889 4 года назад

One of the best looking cars ever, so classy

@richjohn9356 7 лет назад

Push it, you can definitely feel the extra power, it has a revised set up also

@Jonathannnnnnnnnnnnnnnn 7 лет назад

I think you should totally get a vanquish s. You clearly love Aston martins, as do I, and I can see you really appreciating owning one of you do get it.

@sanxi34 7 лет назад

If you want a GT cruiser with a V12, why wouldn't you get a DB11 Volante (when it gets released), I wonder...

@yanndelvaux5061 7 лет назад

Hi yes you should and must thanks for this pure engine moment

@julius8134 7 лет назад

Hey Shmee150, great video as always. I would say that you should upgrade your Vanquish, even tho it is an awesome car. But you should not change it with the S. Everybody is different, but my Dad sold his Vanquish (it wasnt a carbon edition) and bought the Vanquish S, just like what you are thinking about. But after sone time he noticed, that the S didnt have enough changes. Yes, the S has a awesome sound, and some nice little features, but i dont think that this is the car for your upgrade. Long story short, he sold the S and bought a DB11, an awesome car btw. But if you love the car you should get it! Have an awesome day :)

@vagabundo6409 7 лет назад

Thats exactly what I would expect from AM - same form but with high and fast revving engine. They shown that they can with Vuclan model, now they HAVE TO translate that into the road. Ferrari really needs some proper competitor like 10 years ago.

@RetiOrchid58 7 лет назад

I reckon that for me, it would have to come down to, on the one hand, do I want the extra little "S-ness" for its additional S-ness, or if I'm predominantly wanting it for touring and as it's still a GT, do I want the more pure "GT-ness" e.g. slightly less firm ride and more elegant/pure GT looks of the non-S? I can definitely see the attraction, but I guess in theory, other-than-GT does the "S-ness" better. But then again it's a NA V12 and the S has a little more of that :)

@huang783151 7 лет назад

Vanquish S Is very nice to see the refueling But would you buy Vanquish S or just a long time?But can buy

@humphreybradley3060 6 лет назад
