	Aston Martin Picture Gallery - Aston Martin DB7 Vantage
		Up until then, the Vantage derivative of an Aston Martin car has featured a tuned version of the standard engine; for the first time ever, the DB7 Vantage had a brand new engine and was significantly different from the i6 car.
		And this engine, first of a totally new generation, became the future of Aston Martin during the first decade of the 21st century.
		It is also possible to see V12 Vantages with the 18 inch 5 spoke wheel as fitted as standard to the (V12) GT.

	Aston Martin V8 Vantage (2005) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aston Martin previously used the "Vantage" name on its highest-performance vehicles, and notably used the "V8 Vantage" name on their supercar of the 1970s and 1980s.
		The V8 Vantage is powered by a 4.3 L (4280 cc) quad-cam 32-valve V8 which produces 380 hp (283 kW) at 7000 rpm and 302 ft·lbf (409 N·m) at 5000 rpm.
		This engine is unique to Aston Martin and features race-style dry-sump lubrication, which enables it to be mounted low to lower the centre of gravity.

	Aston Martin Vantage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aston Martin has used the Vantage name on a number of vehicles, normally indicating a high-performance version of another model.
		In one case, 1972–1973, the Vantage was a distinct model, being a straight-6 powered version of the (normally V8) DBS and successor to the DB-series.
		The Vantage was the last straight-6 Aston Martin until the 1993 DB7.

	Cartype : Aston Martin Vantage
		The V8 Vantage is the second model to use Aston Martin's unique VH (Vertical Horizontal) architecture.
		Aston Martin's engineers have worked with Ford Research and Nottingham University to develop RTM (Resin Transfer Moulding) composite panels, using unique processes and materials, resulting in composite panels and extremely high surface finish.
		The V8 Vantage is very much a pure sports car, so from the outset, the priority of Aston Martin's engineers was to focus on a lightweight, compact size, agility and power.

	Aston Martin Vantage
		Aston claimed it recorded 191 mph during testing, which made it the fastest Aston ever built.
		In 1998, the Vantage was uprated to Vantage V600, with the same engine boosted to 600 horsepower and 600 lbft of torque, very easy to remember.
		Moreover, it was the last Aston Martin car to be built by hands in the old Newport Pagnell factory.

	Aston Martin V8 Vantage
		Aston Martin has a tradition of producing beautiful cars, even though some lacked the power to compete with Ferrari, and others were a bit fragile.
		Aston Martin puts looks before aerodynamics and the engineers have made a great effort to ensure that the body panels look just right and are light.
		The V8 Vantage frame is based on aluminum extrusions for the main members, with precision castings for some parts – such as the caps of the suspension towers and joints between extrusions.

		Aston Martin says various appearances in James Bond movies – the latest being 2002's Die Another Day, where the Vanquish played a starring role – has been the biggest brand-awareness exercise for the marque.
		Aston Martin admits the similarities between its three models may prove indistinguishable for the average passer-by, even the average enthusiast.
		Such are the options on the Vantage – including colours inside and out, various wheel options and the colour and style of the stitching for the leather seats – that Aston Martin expects every car to be unique.

	Inside Line: First Drive: 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage - Aston Martin Targets the Porsche 911 Carrera (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Aston Martin's CEO, Dr. Ulrich Bez, used to work for Porsche and it was under his watch that the 993 was produced, the car that most 911 fanatics regard as the finest of the breed.
		The Vantage's all-important power-to-weight ratio is therefore marginally inferior to that of the German.
		The Aston is a heavy car and at first acquaintance it doesn't feel as rapid as Aston's figures of zero to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds and a 175-mph top speed suggest.

	2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage - The Car Connection
		Aston faithfully stuck with the shape of the striking concept car it first rolled out on the auto show circuit in 2003.
		Aston's carefully tuned powertrain delivers a resonant baritone that has more in common with the classic American muscle car than the high-tech whine of a Porsche or Ferrari.
		Whether Aston will be able to convert loyal Porsche owners remains to be seen, but there are plenty of other aspirants who've got the money and are ready to move up.

		Aston Martin’s all-new $110,000 V8 Vantage, despite being the lowest-priced model from the venerable British luxury sports-car manufacturer, is arguably the best-looking in its lineup ― and that’s really saying something when your other cars are the delicious DB9 and the ruggedly handsome Vanquish.
		Aston Martins have historically been sublimely elegant in the styling department and the V8 Vantage carries on the tradition.
		The interior, again typical Aston Martin, is understated but handsome, with rich leather, hefty aluminum accents (love the gauge cluster) and a hidden navigation screen (surprisingly, navigation is a $2655 option rather than a standard feature) so as not to clutter the center waterfall with high-tech gizmos.

		At just 4.38 metres (172.5 in) long, not only is it the smallest model in the Aston Martin range and one of the leanest cars in its class, but it is light, too, and very nimble.
		The V8 Vantage is a pure two-seater, a car dedicated to providing the most exhilarating driving experience possible, but that doesn't mean it is not practical.

		In a former life, Aston Martin chief executive Ulrich Bez was responsible for developing the 1994 Porsche 911 (the 993).
		The V-8 Vantage is arranged with the heavy components as low as possible within the wheelbase, which is 5.5 inches shorter, achieving a balanced 49/51-percent front-to-rear weight distribution.
		Bez calls the V-8 Vantage a "front-mid engine" car and is sure this configuration is the most appropriate for the smallest Aston Martin.

		Aston doesn't talk about that but rather emphasizes the exclusivity of the marque and the small number of V-8 Vantages that will be produced.
		Hence "VH," for what Aston calls a "vertical platform," made in bonded aluminum, which can be produced in a variety of sizes and still use the same suspension and chassis systems.
		Aston says the V-8 can go 175 mph (it claims 186 for the DB9), does 0 to 60 in 4.8 seconds (versus 4.5), and runs 0 to 100 in 10.5 (versus 10.3).

		The reason for this close relationship between both cars was that Ford now owned both Jaguar and Aston Martin, so money was saved by sharing development costs between the two companies.
		To add some spice to the DB-7, Aston Martin decided to offer a "Vantage" version, as it had done with most of it's previous cars before.
		Naturally, performance is greatly improved over the six cylinder model, and Aston Martin found that in 1999 (the first full year of production of the V12 DB-7), 95% of orders for the car were for the V12 version.
