    Wheelsandmore Aston Martin Vantage Packs 680 HP (500 kW) and New Look

    When one thinks of cars that are made to be modified and tuned to add a little more oomph, the name Aston Martin doesn’t necessarily come to mind. The brand in recent times has been far too elegant for someone to put on some ridiculous body kit or the like. Things seem to be changing, however, as Aston’s design ethos is changing too as is evident with Wheelsandmore’s new Vantage.

    This new modifying opportunity is mainly thanks to Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG’s new engine partnership. The standard Vantage produces 503 horsepower (375 kW) and 505 lb-ft of torque. When Wheelsandmore get their hands on one, that power output is increased to 680 horsepower (500 kW) and 813 Nm of torque. That means that the 4.0-litre, twin-turbo V8 will propel the Vantage from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds and will top out at 330 km/h.

    The power upgrade of the car is mainly thanks due to larger turbo-chargers, a new exhaust with controllable valves, a free-flowing catalytic converters and an ECU tune for the new hardware. This version of the Vantage will also be sporting either 21 or 22-inch wheels.

This indicates that the owner has a Mercedes-AMG One hypercar on order. Let's hope it makes its way to SA!

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?
