The Vanquish S is a stunning car in it's own right, however this particular incarnation is a new level of beauty.

Possibly one of the prettiest Aston Martins ever made, in my opinion. The Red Arrow inspired car is one of only ten being commissioned by Aston Martin, all featuring unique exterior and interior styling, all in the name of the RAF's most prestigious aerobatics team. 

 
 
The stunning Eclat Red is one of the most prominent differences over the standard car, and it perfectly matches the aeroplane it takes after. As well as blue carbon detailing and white detailing, all in the effort of utilising the red white and blue; Symbolic colours of the world famous Red Arrows. The attention to detail is truly breath taking, with enamel wing badges and titanium exhausts - no expense has been spared when it comes to these truly unique examples of British craftmanship.
 
Inside the vehicle is where the true attention to detail and thought really does prevail, with RAF inspired inserts finished in Pinewood green, embodied diamond formation emblems on the Marin Baker Ejection seat fabric, and the Red Arrows logo embossed on the centre console. There is even space on the rear seats for twin Red Arrow Livery Helmets.  
 
If you are one of the few that can afford or even get the chance to buy one, what do you get for your money? Racing helmets, race suits, bespoke embroidered bomber jackets and luggage set, with a highly-detailed die-cast 1:18 model of their car and the Hawk aircraft, specially designed car cover and Build Book will also be issued. The nine cars mirror the aircraft which they are based on, the tenth car is being gifted to the RAF Benevolent Fund, a charity which provides support to former servicemen and women.
