The REAL TRUTH About the New ASTON MARTIN VANTAGE!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 พ.ค. 2024
- This is the new Aston Martin Vantage, and everything you want to know about it! From a full in-depth walkaround to hot laps on track and driving on mountain roads. With power jumping to 665hp from the twin turbo V8, and stunning One-77 inspired looks, join me to discover it in detail!
Kicking off at Circuito Monteblanco, outside of Seville, Spain, let's take a walkaround of the new Vantage to see Aston Martin's latest supercar, a serious jump up from the previous iteration and sitting alongside the new DB12 in their product portfolio. Resisting the introduction of hybrid technology, the AMG sourced V8 has been significantly reworked to boast a 30%+ increase from the previous car, along with 800Nm of torque.
The design however not only 'fixes' what was arguably wrong with the previous model, but goes beyond and the result is stunningly beautiful; more grille space for cooling, air curtains for aero, new matrix LED headlights, and incorporating the lovely tail details of the earlier car. However, the interior has a complete change, now boasting a version of the latest infotainment that launched with the DB12, and it's truly a big step forwards from what came before.
After a drive on the local roads up to the Rio Tinto to explore it in a road setting, the next step is to stretch its legs on circuit, and boy does it not disappoint! Aston Martin have introduced an adaptive traction control, but this much power to the rear wheels has no issues providing a seriously entertaining experience at this motorsports playground.
There is no question this has really upped the game, the baby Aston is by no means a baby. Come along for my full experience and first drive with the new Vantage!
Thanks for watching, Tim

I can’t wait to watch this video. I’m in a very fortunate position that I can afford one and I’ve been debating between this and a 911 Turbo. I’m a Brit living in the US so it’s only right that I support British manufacturing and drive and enjoy something that will always be a reminder of home. As a side note, your content is fantastic Tim - credit to you and your team!
Thank you for the super kind words, can't wait to hear what you go for!
Keep us updated on what you get in the future comment sections please!
Indeed keep us updated man !!
Do it - I love every moment of owning my DB11 and would only swap for this new gen Vantage or DB12
I would def wait for the new 992.2. I’am for sure. The Vantage’s stats, hp, 0/60, handling, software etc will be outdated (again) as soon as the new 992.2 (Turbo) arrives. It’s just a better performer. And will even improve with the 992.2. I also prefer having the extra 2 seats in the back (come in handy more often than you’d think), 4-wheel drive (feels so secure in any condition), allround camera’s (rear view on the vantage only? Come on its 2024), last but not least a slide/tilt glass rooftop option 🥳
Man the 4K videos hit different
I noticed that the other day.
50fps too
With that new interior Aston is finally back in the game!🔥🔥
Fr
Thank god for Mercedes
They didn't use any mercedes parts in this new interior bud
@@ethanb4ughan they did, light switches for ex, most is aston though
We need a new Aston Rapide
I’m excited for the new Vanquish
If this is anything to go by, I bet it'll be a beast!
@@Shmee150 I bet you already saw it 😜. Anyway you should add a Vantage in your collection
I’m excited to see a new Aston Rapide S
@Shmee150 When it comes, it will be my permanent favourite car forever, so no more changing from other cars
Look at Tim pulling off respectable Chris Harris power slides! Tim is definitely fast, this is a fun new side of him in video!
Great Review!
Thats the Car that belongs in your collection... Love it.
Beautiful car! Aston's really pulled this off. Plus the wonderful sound of the V8.😍
The front heavily resembles the One-77, which is a nice little 15th birthday hommage to the car. The headlights do make it look a bit off though..but you can still tell they directly took the front fascia of the One-77.
You are 100% right. Like you, the first thought I had when looking at this drivable work of art, was indeed the One-77.
In my opinion, the One-77 deserves way more credit than it gets. I’ve always been surprised you don’t hear able it as much as a similar type car in Aston’s line as with other liked brands.
It’s a shame though, I’m sure I’m not the only one who would like to see it being put through its gear in some beautiful location around the world, or even having it reviewed by such people like Doug DuMoro or Hoovie and the Car Wizard.
By the way, the colour chosen for this particular test car is phenomenal. Normally such a colour, on paper, would not be one I would have chosen, but damn…she’s fine.
lawrance stroll really did turn around aston martin i'd say you can see he is actively involved with his passion eventhough he owns soo many other businesses
Let's hope the business side turns around as well so that everything keeps rocking and rolling!
Shmee, you could support the business with buying a new Vantage 😂 i personally would, if I'd have the opportunity
Mr JWW and Mat Watson were on this press trip. To think this is the entry level Aston Martin. Its not short changed. So much car. I'd have it over a Porsche Turbo S. Looks beautiful and the interior lift was needed. Its got proper supercar power now. And the front end looks mega on track.
JWW was driving the grey car on track in this video; Mat Watson was on a totally different rotation, we did not overlap
@@Shmee150For a second there, I thought it was Mat who spun out behind you, lol.
@@Shmee150 I thought it might of been him in the grey car as I watched his video and thats the one he had.
Fantastic car. A truly great Aston. 👌loved the video Tim and I appreciated and valued your passion too. Can’t wait to see the vanquish too
Can’t wait to see a GT8 version of that!
V12 version is a certainty
It'll likely be called the Vantage AMR/AMR Pro rather than a GT8.
Great review, I literally felt the excitement of what it would feel like to drive a Vantage. The smile never left your face.
I love how I watched both Mat Watson's video on this and then immediately watched this while still being thoroughly entertained via the presentation. 😎👌
Was that Mat, how spinning out?
Funny how Matt is the one Spinning out in both video’s 😭🤣😹😹😹
Thanks for sharing. Great review
Go Shmee! Fantastic review. With all the true upgrades the best Vantage ever. Like a mini one77😗
Seeing Shmee hooning around a car on track is rare and a definite illustration of how high the fun factor of this car really is. I had alot of fun watch this video. Thank u very much Shmee
Your car control is really good these days Shmee... you are so much smoother on the steering input even when the back end kicks out.
Fun to watch...
Happy for AM and the direction they're going. Always a good time on the configurator - their colour palette is second to none, imo.
Cant wait for this to get the V12... looks great, front very One-77-esque imo
Shmee you have to get an Aston Martin fleet!!!
Doesn't he have 2?
@@Sammy-qt9it the pedigree and characteristic of this Vantage is really different, with the Vanquish incoming it would allow him some advantage to purchase Martin’s rather well additionally
Great review. Perfect.
If had the choice between two cars the new Vantage and the Ferrari Roma I would hands down buy the Vantage instead of the Roma as I think it is all round a better looking and better sounding car and has a better looking interior than the Roma, if I had a Roma on order I would cancel and go for the Vantage.
I absolutely agree, Aston martins for a few years were a pretty underwhelming driving experience due to the interiors and the overall issues that comes with the cars but this seems to be a huge step up. Unfortunately even if it’s a much better, car I doubt he would cancel the Roma for a vantage. However maybe he will choose this over the amg gt as that car strikes me as a bit of a disappointment as well. Also could be some behind the scenes tid bits that decide which cars he gets like some people speculate as of recent.
Beautiful car man. They did a really good job with this one!
We enjoy seeing you having fun Tim! 👍😎👍
This is one of the prettiest new cars being made. I went to the online configurator and was blown away by the options. Porsche can't touch that. I only wish that Aston Martin held their value like a Porsche. I would take mine in silver.
I've seen the number of grey paint options on the Aston Martin configurator. It's crazy how many there are! But if there's one person who can distinguish each of them by tone and by name, it's Shmee! Probably? 😄
Resubscribed! This is the first video of Shmee's that I've watched in probably three years. Loved hearing that Vantage sound and the track experience felt amazing to watch.
I love the flybys! 💨
Great driving Shmee!! 💚💛 😎👍🏾
What a car... and excellent editing...!
I saw it recently at Laguna Seca. It looks sick
I could definitely see the new Vantage being in your collection at some point down the line. Out of the two cars that it competes with, the Ferrari Roma and Porsche 911 Turbo, I would choose the Vantage without a doubt. The Roma is a beautiful car, but the interior functions are not ideal due to Ferrari over-digitizing their interiors and the Ferrari name leaves a poor taste in my mouth at times despite its history of making some of the world's most legendary cars, and while the 911 lineup is fantastic in many ways, especially when talking about the S/T and GT3 RS, it still has become such an oversaturated car where to me it doesn't feel all that special.
The Vantage in this form, is a beautiful middle ground. It doesn't take itself too seriously while also being a beast of a machine on the track and twisty roads. This renaissance that Aston Marin is in is what ultimately led it to become my favorite sports car brand. I'm now intrigued by this company's history and what they have in store for the future. I cannot wait to start potentially seeing these whenever I'm out at the Hamptons in New York.
What a car! Love the video & car!
Astonishing drive then! loved the video
Beautiful track. Perfect setting.
Hello Shmee! You’ve made another excellent video! I've been following you for a long time and I'm a big fan. I’d love to get your advice. Currently, I have an AMG GTR and I’m considering upgrading to the new Vantage. How do their performances compare? Which car has the better performance?I hope to hear your thoughts!
Fantasticly entertaining content Tim. Gotta be a matter of time before we see some schmee plates on one
4:28 Tell you what, this really sounds lively and exciting in person
Had to watch every second of that video. Wow!
Great driving skills 👍
Tim really looking forward to watching the video i bet they don't offer it with a manual gearbox. I love the look of Aston Martin. I saw your video on the pagani with the manual box it just frustrating because they make amazing cars.
If they ever do down the line, they will only offer limited numbers and will charge you almost double which sucks but it's fair given that next to no one buys them and they cost more to develop than they sell.
What a great car. Amazing sound as well. The interior is such a massive upgrade! 800 ft/lb of torque, WOW!! Would love to drive one, cheers, John.
great to see you in Spain again. Nice video, nice car and better life you have... 🤣
Looks great!!
Great video great car, so the question now Tim is it joining the Schmee collection?
I wonder that same question, Shmee150s I think that car should, you could have all 3 generations of Vantage Aston Martin cars in your garage.
I hope so!
just love the car ❤ shmee wish you do get one as soon as possible🎉
I really like those forged wheels!
Beautiful looking cars 😍❤️🔥
Tim, you sir a fabulous driver!
That brake squeals would drive me crazy. Beautiful car. I love it
Hi Shmee when can we anticipate a spec video of the 2 new Ferraris coming?
Hopefully really soon, the specs are locked in now
Dit is nie tweede nie
@@janconaude7717wat zeg je allemaal? Lol.
I love it! One of these with some Novitec bits would do very nicely
Hey did you pass through Seville this last week in a convertible db11 ( don't remember the model exactly). You had also had a mate in a convertible jag? Both had UK plates?
Shmee u need to buy this gen of vantage!!!!
nicely done Aston Martin bringing the Vantage into the modern sports car/GT world. this wud be a lovely addition to the garage Tim especially if Aston Martin make a track version.
Good video
Great to see AM getting it right with their new cars recently. DBX and DB12 look superb. The standout for me has been the new interior with the integrated screens rather than those awful stuck on top of the dash screens on previous Vantage. I took the previous Vantage out on track and couldn't get away from the fake piped in engine noise. Hopefully that's been improved in the new car.
I always enjoy an Aston Martin, and this one does not disappoint in any way.
That beast sounds and looks amazing 😃👌
2:45 are they the royal guards standing there behind the cars lol
Suddenly I feel like I need to own an Aston Martin. Never been so drawn as I am now. Sick car and perfect color for me! 🏆
Shmee150 Absolutely Incredible Review I think that All New Aston Martin Vantage is absolutely incredible in every way possible and I think you should get one
Great looking car!
Magnifique!
Probably one of my favorite new cars right now. The silver Grey is a nice color with this new design.
Can't wait to finally get to drive this.... In Gran Turismo 7.
Alonsos input, no wonder the game has been upped 🏆🏆🏆
Love the Daily Uploads for the last 3 days. Great Work 👍 Appreciate it❤
They're def on a good path forward!
Tim the tire shredder near the end of the second session although those tires held up nicely. Cheers from Nevada USA!
Great review, I think you should get one. Just think this is only the new "entry level" one!
Quality 😊
Big UP ! Aston Martin for : db12 , dbx 707 , Valhalla , Vantage
Now that Shmee does it, I can also dare to show my milk bottles. It'll be a warm day tomorrow 😂
Well done mate, your face at the end said it all. I think u r going to need a house in South of spain😂😂😂😂.
As good as some Astons have been, I feel like this version really is a step forwards again towards new competition.
Is there a third Aston Martin shaped parking space developing in the garage 🧐😉
This is the 1st iteration of this car. I dont know if these cars will hold enough value to he worth sinking +200K into, new. Its still no 911 GT3 at the end of the day.
Nice drifts u did there tim
That ride with with Tim was the best day of that fly's week long life.
Hey Shmee!
Nice one shmee, biggest kiwi fan is massive Aston Martin lover, over all other exotic'z,one of my top 5 sexiest cars ever👌
How special is that combo of British attitude and German engineering 👌
Hope that Jaguar gets a coupe successor with 4.4 V8 from BMW 😎
Shmee you absolute legend
yes yes yes. the one that i've waiting for..
So will there be a 3e aston to the garage as a daily driver🤔. And that first time he drove pitlane out and already get a smile on your face Tim
Order one!!
The rear of the vantage is literally one of the best in the world. The front just looks like a Ford Puma (The headlights specifically), the previous variation was an Mx5. Feel like they're missing something with the front end.
I think one of those would look very nice next to the GT8 in the garage
Mustard yellow is by far my favourite car color.
Why do people who collect super cars, rarely seem to add an Aston Martin to their collections? There's a masculine presence with Aston Martin that you don't get with other super car manufacturers. It's the association of the James Bond image that plays heavily in the brand that makes you feel confident, strong and some would say virile. Other super car manufacturers would love to capture that essence
I REALLY like the look of the new Vantage! It's a very big upgrade in my opinion.
Would Shmee buy one ???
Think I would
That was fun
😎😎😎👍👍👍
That front end is gorgeous, reminds me of the one-77
you so neeed another aston on top of your current two!
I hope I didn’t get clickbaited …
Shouldn't be, this is my real feeling about the new Vantage! Lots to go through, it's a very in-depth look at their latest model
This car looks awesome.
Great car. I saw the Gercollector video about this car just today too. A nice car for your collection?😅
#shquad....hi Tim, what a car.....you said it buddy.......new shmeemobile here we come 😂😂👍🫂
This over a new AMG GT anyday - driven the previous gen often Vantage, with the tt v8 - great car but the interior was a bit lacking. Glad AM changed the interior on this one
Feels like Aston Martin has gained back something it has lost before. It’s own engine. The previous generations of the V8 vantage felt a little tame with the muffled engine sound. Lovely!
