We know that many of our loyal readers were saddened to see Vantage suspended at the end of 2021, but we're thrilled to announce that Issue 36 is now available as a special magazine – picking up exactly where we left off.

Many of the original team have returned, including editor Peter Tomalin, former editor Richard Meaden, Aston guru Stephen Archer and road testing maestro Andrew Frankel.

Copies are available on major newsstands, or via the store, link in bio.

Featuring in this issue:

● From DB4 to Vanquish: the story of car production at Newport Pagnell, driving two of the greatest Astons of the postwar era.

● Valhalla! A drive in the prototype of Aston Martin’s Ferrari-chasing supercar.

● Interview: Ulrich Bez, architect of Aston’s most recent golden age.

● Aston Martin F1: the inside line on the F1 team’s recent struggles, and the hopes for the Adrian Newey-designed future.

● Road tests: DBX S, Vanquish Volante and Vantage Roadster.

● Le Mans 2025: Aston Martin returns to the very top flight of endurance racing and we make the pilgrimage in a stunning DB4 GT.

● Aston at the Festival of Speed: pictorial highlights from one of the world’s premier motoring events.

● Restoration of the Year: unique ex-Le Mans DB1 brought back to its original glory.

● When worlds collide: modern racer Darren Turner tries competing at Classic Le Mans in LM4, a 1930s vintage Aston.

● Buying Guide: The mk2 Vanquish from the 2010s was a carbonfibre-bodied beauty with the last version of the immortal 6-litre V12. We find out if it’s also a great secondhand buy.

● AMOC at 90: worldwide events and epic drives to mark the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Aston Martin Owners’ Club.

In the new issue of Vantage, we cover everything from the oldest Aston still in existence – the 100-year-old 'A3' – to the very latest models – the one-off Victor hypercar and the ballistic V12 Speedster.

We also look back to the days when the Beatles and the Stones drove the latest Astons, we've got an exclusive drive in a unique Vignale-bodied Aston built for a king, and managing editor Peter Tomalin twin-tests a DB9 and a V8 Vantage - and buys the winning car!
