Automotive manufacturer Aston Martin ends the Vantage chapter with the Vantage V12 Type AMSP. Rumor has it that with the last model, the British manufacturer says goodbye to combustion engine cars and will solely offer electric cars from now on. Whether this is true or not is still written in the stars.
From the beginning, the 700 hp car was limited to only 333 units; those 333 Aston Martins were sold out within a very short time. For good reason: The Vantage V12 is one of the most dynamic and fastest Vantages of all time. The 5.2-liter V12-Biturbo with four camshafts is powerful: Within 3.5 seconds, the vehicle speeds up to 100 km/h from a standing position.
Tobias Moers, Aston Martin CEO, already announced the Vantage series’ key to success: “Since the first launch of the V12 Vantage RS Concept in 2007, fitting the biggest engine into the smallest and sportiest model has always impressed our customers.” No wonder the few available models were going away like hotcakes.
Although we do not offer a KW coilover kit for the Aston Martin Vantage V12 and its little brother – the Vantage V8 – we sell height-adjustable springs. Our KW coilover spring kits are the ideal solution for all those that desire (maximum) lowering and an increase in driving comfort in their V12.
Especially the serial suspension was grilled by our test drivers. According to them, the car lacks comfort at slow speeds. Also, the general driving comfort was ranked only mediocre. The very tight and harsh setup of the serial springs could be an explanation for this.
A tight but still very comfortable setup in our KW coilover spring kit ensures that driving comfort doesn’t slide. A comfy but sporty driving experience is the result. Two attributes that go hand in hand at KW. A nice side effect: The Aston Martin V12 and V8 get a sportier look thanks to our height-adjustable springs (lowering springs).
By the way, at KW we also offer the perfect coilover kit for numerous vehicles. Depending on the customer’s needs, our products have an impact on the driving dynamics and driving comfort of their vehicles. We offer high-quality products that were made in Germany. Our products are available in our online shop or at our KW retail partners.
