## What changed with the current Vantage?

The engine was reworked for 656bhp, the front structure stiffened, the track widened, and the whole electronics package replaced. The result is far more serious than the outgoing car: rear-wheel drive, a lot of torque and a short wheelbase. It rewards a driver who reads the road, and it is honest about not flattering one who does not.

## Is it easier to live with than a mid-engined supercar?

Considerably. The boot is a proper 346 litres under a hatchback tailgate, the driving position is conventional, and visibility is normal. You can park it in a supermarket car park without an audience. That combination is why it is the most-hired car of its type for people who want performance for a full week rather than an evening.

## What does it cost to hire?

A refundable deposit near £5,000 and a matching excess are typical. Mileage is normally 12,000 miles a year with about £2.50 a mile beyond. Everything is confirmed in writing before you commit.

## How does it compare with a Porsche 911 GT3?

Different characters. The Aston has more power and more torque and feels the more muscular car; the Porsche is lighter, revs far higher and is sharper on a circuit. For road driving in Britain most people find the Vantage the more usable and the GT3 the more thrilling. Both are rear-wheel drive and both deserve respect in the wet.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can you hire an Aston Martin Vantage in the UK?

Yes, on a sourced basis. We arrange it through vetted partners rather than supplying it from our own fleet, and confirm a named car against your dates before anything is committed.

### Is the Vantage available as a convertible?

Yes, as the Vantage Roadster. It is less common in hire circulation than the coupé, so it needs more notice — tell us at enquiry if the roof matters.

### How much luggage does a Vantage take?

Around 346 litres under the tailgate, which is unusually generous for a two-seat sports car and takes two cabin cases plus soft bags.

*Performance & Prestige hires vehicles from its own fleet and, where a vehicle is not one of ours, arranges it through a vetted partner. Cars marked "we can source" are subject to confirmation before anything is agreed. Rates include VAT. Nothing is booked or paid for through this website: a person confirms the car, the full cost and the delivery slot with you first.*

*Pre-launch note: the rates, driver criteria, deposits, excesses and mileage allowances quoted here are read from Performance & Prestige's own catalogue data, which is still being confirmed with the owner and the insurer. Read them as the shape of the figures rather than as a quotation. What binds is your written quote and your hire agreement.*
