Is the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S a good investment?

The thesis

Just 114 RHD manual V12 Vantage S coupes were built, making this one of the rarest modern Aston Martins. The 573hp 5.9L V12 with 7-speed manual represents the final iteration of Aston's naturally aspirated V12 in the Vantage, and the last chance to buy a manual V12 sports car from a major marque. Current UK prices of £100–165k sit within budget, and the extreme rarity combined with the end of Aston's own V12 era positions this well for future appreciation.
