Going Out in Style
“The V12 Vantage Roadster puts its own contemporary twist on Aston Martin’s long tradition of open-top sportscars. Explicit in looks and deeds it makes a clear visual statement of intent, which it then backs-up with truly blistering performance.”

Exterior
From every angle, the aesthetic of V12 Vantage Roadster have been sculpted to be even more striking and uncompromising than any previous incarnation. Pure, raw, honed and brutally, unapologetically, dressed for its finale.
Interior
If you love it from the outside, wait until you ease yourself into the luxury of the cockpit. Clear dials, intuitively placed controls and superb all-round visibility mean you can focus on what matters most: the sheer unadulterated thrill of driving an open top V12 Vantage.
Unmatched Aesthetics
How V12 Vantage looks and how it performs are indelibly linked. The 40mm wider body houses a wide track chassis for supreme cornering performance and stability. The powerful rear diffuser increases grip and reduces drag. Extensive use of carbon fibre finishes, the optional assertive rear wing and twinned central exhausts complete the picture and make sure that its appearance is as memorable as its ability.
Once Seen, Never Forgotten
No ambiguity, no room for misinterpretation. The grille, enlarged by 25 per cent, complemented by the muscular new design for the front bumper and the full width front splitter leave no room for doubt: you are in the presence of greatness.

A Fierce Finale
We have worked extremely hard to ensure the V12 Vantage Roadster possesses the same potency and dynamism that characterises the V12 Vantage, while surpassing it in terms of raw sensory excitement that you only achieve with roof down driving. With more power and torque than any Vantage Roadster before it, a wide-track chassis with precisely tuned suspension calibration, and up to ten times the downforce of the series production Vantage Roadster, this is a breathtaking machine created for our most enthusiastic customers.

Engineered Thrill
The final scene is always dramatic. A 700PS V12. The most powerful 12-cylinder engine that has ever, and will ever, be fitted to a Vantage Roadster. With every other area, from the aerodynamics, to the design, to the chassis, to the brakes, redefined and re-engineered to meet its highs. This is the thunderous parting shot of a hero, unique in its potency, presence, dynamism and thrill.
An Adrenaline Powerhouse
Acceleration to 60mph in just 3.5 seconds, V12 Vantage Roadster’s potent performance is powered by the 5.2L twin turbo V12 engine that lurks under its sculpted bonnet. With an output of 700PS, backed by 753Nm of torque and a deafening roar in its throat this Vantage may be the last of its breed but its making a thunderous exit.
Intense Driving Dynamics
Delivering the ultimate thrill of sports car driving, V12 Vantage Roadster’s optimised transmission calibration minimises shift speeds and maximises driver interaction, while adaptive software in the transmission’s control system monitors operating conditions and driver demands to enhance the driver’s feeling of response and control.
Explosive Performance
Vantage has been fitted with turbocharged engines and V12 engines before. But never both, at once. Until now. Which translates into the most powerful V12 Vantage Roadster ever, with 700PS, a top speed of 200mph, and 0-60 in just 3.5 seconds.
Slipstream Sculpting
Hair-raising, air-curving, slipstream sculpting. From the moment the atmosphere enters the front grille until the instant it’s expelled through the optional rear wing, V12 Vantage Roadster takes active control of its own air flow. Bending and manipulating it to meet its specific requirements. From providing cooling to the engine and brakes needed to eat their own heat or supplying the 216kg of downforce, with the optional aerodynamic package, required to keep the car grounded at 200 miles an hour, enhancing grip and stability at speed.
Perfection, Cornered
Supremely capable around corners. With driving dynamics like no other. V12 Vantage comes with a wider track, front and rear stiffer springs, re-rated anti-roll bars and new adaptive dampers. A harmonious combination providing precise control at the apex of a fast turn, while also delivering effortless comfort and ride quality over longer distances. The unique V12 Vantage steering calibration improves driver feel and response, tightening the bond between the car and driver.
