Overview

2025 Aston Martin Vanquish

The 2025 Aston Martin Vanquish offers a compelling blend of V12 power and luxury grand touring. For the used car shopper, this model represents a significant performance machine with a generally good reliability record. However, a critical recall affecting the power brake system warrants careful attention. With its rear-wheel drive and 8-speed automatic transmission, the Vanquish delivers a dynamic driving experience, though its 16 MPG combined fuel economy suggests high fuel costs.

Critical Failure Risk

A recall (25V532000) identified a potential loss of vacuum from the vacuum pump, leading to reduced power brake assist. This can result in increased braking effort and longer stopping distances.

Early detection can help you avoid a $1,000-$2,500 repair.
