This Vanquish was originally ordered by actor Hugh Grant following the making of the film, About A Boy. It is understand that co-star Nicholas Hoult, who played the young boy Marcus in the film and is a keen car enthusiast, advised Hugh on what sports car he should purchase. Originally registered on Mr Grant's well-known plate, 'APE V12', the Aston was ordered in 2+2 configuration finished in Solway Grey with Charcoal interior. Other notable features include a built in phone system; satellite navigation; stereo system with CD player; air conditioning; and a tracker. The original umbrella may be found in the boot.
Hugh Grant's name appears in the owner's guide/service book, the latter boasting 13 stamps from Aston Martin main dealers. The car was serviced by Aston Martin Works in 2019 after a period of storage, and subsequently by Harwoods Aston Martin in Chichester. New suspension arms and associated components were fitted front and rear in 2020, while the coolant was changed and new coolant hoses fitted that same year. Aston Martin-approved Yokohama tyres are fitted all round. The car was serviced and MoT'd on the 22nd March 2022 at Harwoods.
Since its acquisition by our vendor in April 2022, the Vanquish has covered fewer than 1,000 miles and been stored under cover (the current odometer reading is 39,300 miles). Described by the vendor as in good/excellent throughout, the car is offered with sundry bills, MoT certificates, current MoT and V5C, and two sets of keys.
