Time for a new flagship

By the mid-2000s, Aston Martin’s flagship model, Vanquish, was becoming a bit dated. It was time to think about what the successor would be. It was also a time of significant change at the company, with a new factory recently brought online at Gaydon, England. This new factory featured modern manufacturing processes, and the ability to produce cars in a higher volume than the old factory at Newport Pagnell.
