This tease image from the Aston Martin video appears to show a V12 Vantage outline
Aston Martin has released a video teasing a new car, but rather than a new car it looks like it could be a ‘Run Out’ Edition of the V12 Vantage.
We reported recently that Aston Martin had told its dealers to stop taking orders for the V12 Vantage Coupe, which we took to mean the Vantage is coming to the end of its shelf life, at least in its current iteration.
But a tease video Aston Martin has released for a new car perhaps – ‘Coming Soon’ – points to a final edition version of the V12 Vantage Coupe before it gets put out to grass.
The video (below) does show what appears to be a V12 Vantage; it’s the right shape, it has bonnet vents, bits of carbon fibre and an exhaust that sounds about right.
So our money’s on a V12 Vantage run out model – perhaps the V12 Vantage S – before Aston Martin brings a new model.
Surely it’s too soon for a properly new Vantage?

I think you’ll find the Aston engine with Jaguar roots is the V8 and not the V12. The V12 is Ford derived.

Even if it’s a new Vantage it still won’t be new. It will have the same platform as all Astons and a Jag engine!
