2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Owners of the 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage are thrilled with its stunning performance and mesmerizing engine sound. They love how fast it drives and appreciate the beautiful design. However, many drivers have expressed disappointment with the build quality, noting issues like central locking failures and disappointing interior features that feel cheap for a luxury car. Overall, while the driving experience is exhilarating, some feel it could use improvements in quality and equipment compared to competitors like the Porsche 911."
Mate's car, drives beautifully and the sound of the thing is crazy.
January 7, 2008A wonderful car, with wonderful sound, let down by being a little short of the Porsche 911 on most dynamic aspects such as steering, grip, handling, and acceleration, as well as standard equipment.

February 27, 2008Very very easy to drive fast, good steering communication, lots of grunt, very nice car to sit in, very nice noise, eggs you on.
April 16, 2008Amazing Engine Sound.. and Beautiful... Just beautiful... Unfortunately.. you can tell Aston Martin is owned (was) by Ford... Build quality Appalling for a 117k EUR car. I had problems with central locking, trim coming off.. but wind the window down and open the throttle... you forget the rest... I havent tried the paddle shift though.. this was a manual..
September 6, 2008Always wanted an Aston, always wanted to drive an Aston and used to hate people saying it was a Mondeo because of the window switches. I have now driven a few and they are true drivers cars. The sound is so fast as any speed. Not too sure about the use of the Volvo interior, he climate control, the CD player, the Satnav, same as a lot of the Volvo range. The killed it for me. Still a great car but made cheap. Dont believe me, try an Volvo S80 and compare dashes.
