Introduced in 2021 and developed directly from the Vantage used as the Official Safety Car of Formula 1, the F1 Edition represented the most focused version of the previous-generation V8 Vantage. Power from its 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 increased to 535PS, while revised suspension, steering and transmission calibration were joined by a substantial aerodynamic package capable of generating up to 200kg more downforce than the standard Vantage at maximum speed. This particular example is one of the later cars to reach the road, first registered in 2024, and combines those performance upgrades with an especially desirable specification.

Most notably, it is equipped with the £8,095 Carbon Ceramic Brake option. Beyond their visual appeal, carbon ceramic brakes reduce unsprung weight and offer significantly greater resistance to brake fade under repeated hard use, making them particularly well suited to the more focused character of the F1 Edition. This car also features the Comfort Seats rather than the more uncompromising carbon racing seats, making it a more appealing proposition for longer journeys and allowing the Vantage's genuine grand touring ability to come through without detracting from its performance credentials.

The specification gives this example an especially menacing presence, with its all-black finish, Satin Black alloy wheels and body-coloured detailing working particularly well with the F1 Edition's prominent front splitter, dive planes and fixed rear wing. A one-owner car from new and protected by full PPF, its late 2024 registration also means it continues to benefit from the original Aston Martin manufacturer's warranty, with one service remaining under the factory service plan. With production of this generation now finished, it is a particularly complete example of one of the most distinctive derivatives of the previous Vantage, combining the F1 Edition's sharper dynamics and dramatic appearance with a specification that makes it equally suited to longer-distance use.
