@@milans3747 Massively untrue. Ferrari especially are far more expensive to maintain. These vantages are parts bin specials and are fairly bulletproof. They have a timing chain which is great and lots of their parts are from Ford, Volvo and Jaguar. You see a few of these online with some serious mileage. Their only downfall is on the electrical side of things but that will be the same for pretty much every car from this era.

Funny, I’ve had mine 3 years and the only things I’ve fixed are the door struts and an alarm sensor (battery had gone bad after 18 years). Total in parts was under $500. Outside routine maintenance, which has also been pretty cheap (thanks Red Pants!). It’s been rock solid otherwise. Also I’m researching getting something like a 570S or F430 and their parts and maintenance are drastically more expensive. But hey, these myths are keeping the prices low so enthusiasts can enjoy this bargain car.

I've had a 2007 Vantage for almost three years and it's a great all around car. With 200TW tires, it's even fun on the autocross course (video proof on my channel). One thing Doug doesn't mention is that the car is quite DIY friendly. Since purchasing it, I've installed track pads and high temp brake fluid, O2 sensors, a serpentine belt, and an oem Sports Pack suspension kit, all at home with regular tools. Thanks to Ford interchangeability, some of the parts weren't even that expensive. And I "fixed" the infotainment with an Echo Auto and a bluetooth module that streams through the CD Changer port. It was a dream car of mine since it came out, and I can't think of much else I'd rather have for the price

I love hearing that from owners. I hope to own one as well one day. It would have been a better purchase than a new Ridgeline, but finding one and then getting financing are the obstacles for plebians like me who don't have 40k burning a hole in their pocket. Working toward it though. Still prefer old cars over all the modern safety beeping and warnings. 21 years driving with no accidents.

I have an 09’ manual 4.7 coupe with 106k miles. It has been my daily driver for 5 years until I got a great EV lease deal 3 weeks ago. It’s now a weekender… for now. it has been the most reliable car I’ve owned and I will never sell it. (Prior cars- 300zx, m coupe, Volvo s60r (has the same mirrors as the vantage actually), e46 m3, m2 competition, 2023 ford bronco. The vantage is incredibly reliable if you take care of it. I do my own oil changes every 3k miles, and it takes less than 45 minutes. The only thing I’ve had fail in the last 5 years of ownership is the auxiliary fan, which was $600… trust me, don’t let the perception of a few that have never owned one, ruin potential ownership. It’s a gorgeous, high quality, and special car. Buy one!

This brings back old Memories of early Doug Videos! Also i feel the Aston Martin Vantage (or any Aston Martin for that matter) is timeless in Design Yes Aston Martins are often insanely expensive to fix if something breaks even here in Europe, while usually European Car Brands are way cheaper to fix and repair as long as you live in Europe But just like with a BMW M5 V10. it's still worth all the Hassle everytime you drive it. I always considered getting a Vantage V8, and then for a while a V12 (they used to be way cheaper back around 2013-2014) should have gone for it back then Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps

One defect I noticed that isn't mentioned in the video (it is mentioned on the auction listing): look closely at the stereo display and gauge cluster displays, and you will notice the anti-glare reflective coating is crazing on all of them. Common problem on Vantage and DB9, but it requires sanding the coating off and polishing the plastic to make it look pretty again. Not the end of the world, but annoying.

Need to review a newer 4.7 2012+ with the upgrades from the S (quicker rack and brakes). Amazing car and much sportier than people think.

12:00 how is a button on the hatch that opens the hatch a quirk? I've only every seen unlabeled trunk/hatch release buttons because it's exceedingly self-evident what the button does.

Always liked these cars, funny my only gripe with this one was the clear tail lamps and it turns out this particular model came with red ones but the current owner updated them to clear lenses from a later model. Definitely prefer the red. Nice car. Goodluck to the new owner.

About the tailgate opening ...Doug says it's the classiest way ever in the history of the automobile. Possibly. But if you checkout how the tailgate is opened on a Peugeot 407 Coupe - that is pretty cool. I never get tired of that. Hint, press the '0'.

There was one of these at my local Nissan dealer and it was beautiful. Black on black. Black everything. Wheels, windows, badges. Totally awesome. I called and asked about it. Had like 40k miles on and they wanted $36k for it. I asked if it was a manual and with a sigh she replied, “No, it’s an automatic”. I told her thank you and have a nice day. Thank goodness it was a automatic because I’d had to have dealt with the embarrassment of being rejected for a loan for an exotic car 😂

6:28 if the Vantage is old enough that it has a metal key (rather the glass ECU you put in the dash), then it wasn't even the Garvin nav that came on later models. It's old Volvo satnav.

A decade ago I went to pick up my W211 E55 from a car dealer in South Florida, and they had a Vantage in the showroom. I sat in it and it had THE nicest interior I have ever seen in a car. It was simply gorgeous. The Vantage S was a pretty Quick car too.

Whomever buys this, if you are reading these comments, I know there is some work needing doing on the car but please try to put the original lights and bumper back on it. The later V8 S bumper looks wrong without the larger dove tail on the trunk/book. This car deserves to brought back to its original factory look and it's a stunner. And astonmartinbits in the UK is your go to for the cluster screen replacements and other misc parts.

12:10 The silver button to enter the trunk is cute and all, but you should review a Peugeot 607. It's got the cleverest quirky trunk open button you'll ever see, and I think you'll get a kick out of it.
