Aston Martin Vanquish S Red Arrows Edition Unveiled

The Q by Aston Martin Vanquish S Red Arrows edition is finished in beautiful Eclat Red, reflecting the familiar livery of the Hawks and referencing the word ‘Eclat,' the Red Arrows' motto.

On the inside, the upholstery highlights the same green used on the Arrows' pilot flight suits, as well as Red Arrow formation graphics embroidered into the door cards and seat backs.

The rear of the cabin is finished in the 2+0 layout, allowing for a rear-mounted storage area for two Red Arrow motif crash helmets.

Each Aston Martin Vanquish S Red Arrows edition also receives a unique plaque on its engine, signed by the corresponding Red Arrows pilot. The steering wheel features an RAF-inspired switchgear and is derived from that of the One-77.

Mechanical, the bespoke edition has not received any changes, so the Vanquish S's 592bhp, the 630Nm V12 powertrain remains the same, as do the car's 3.5sec 0-10kp/h time and 325kp/h top speed.

Production is limited to ten vehicles, though the final car is to be gifted to the RAF Benevolent Fund. The series was commissioned to the Q by Aston Martin initiative by Aston Martin Cambridge; the same branch which approved the 80 V12 Vantage S Spitfire 80 special edition cars last year, and the Vantage S Blades Edition.

Aston Martin's Cambridge dealershiphave donated the 10th car to the RAF Benevolent Fund and are selling raffle ticket so someone can win it.
