Standard or documented features

✓The Aston Martin V12 Vanquish was styled by Ian Callum and drew inspiration from the DB4 GT Zagato, projecting a more aggressive presence than Callum's DB7 Vantage
✓The production car closely resembled the ''Project Vantage Concept'' which debuted with a V12 engine at the North American International Auto Show in January 1998
✓Underneath, the V12 Vanquish car featured a unique and bespoke bonded aluminium composite chassis with a carbon fibre backbone developed in partnership with Lotus, an advanced independent suspension, and a more highly tuned version of the naturally aspirated 5935 cc Aston Martin V12 engine that had debuted in the DB7 two years earlier
✓It is controlled by a drive-by-wire throttle and driven by a 6-speed automated manual transmission
✓The Vanquish model debuted with 355 mm drilled and ventilated disc brakes with four-piston calipers
✓ABS, with electronic brake distribution
✓The interior featured full instrumentation, advanced electronics, and a choice of leather upholstery with metallic details – the latter was an intentional move away from the wood trim seen in the DB7
