Is the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S a good investment?
7-speed manual (2017–2018)
The thesis
The ultimate analogue Aston: 565hp, 6.0L naturally aspirated V12, rare 7-speed dog-leg manual (Graziano). Manual only offered 2017 onward (AMR/V600 variants). Total V12 Vantage S production 1,318 units; manual take-rate extremely low. Manual examples now trade £80–110k in UK, commanding 15–20% premium over Sportshift. Last true manual V12 GT from Aston; electrification and turbo V12s have replaced it. Undervalued vs Porsche/Ferrari equivalents.
