Does the Aston Martin Vanquish have the greatest car name of all time? The Jensen Interceptor might disagree, but it’s hard not to give Aston the crown, especially since the original Vanquish was driven by James Bond.
007's first-generation Vanquish fittingly went out of production in 2007, then it was half a decade before Aston revealed a successor. That car lasted for six years, then it was another six before the third-generation Vanquish you see here arrived. While Aston’s DB cars come along with a fairly regular cadence, and the last three generations of Vantage have followed each other in relatively quick succession, it would be fair to say a new Vanquish is a rare thing.
