The Vanquish S was the final evolution of the second-generation Vanquish and the last of Aston Martin's naturally aspirated V12 flagships. In 2017, Q by Aston Martin created the Pearl Edition for the Middle East as a tribute to the Gulf's pearl-diving heritage. Fifteen were planned, and only ten were completed.

Marek Reichman's carbon fibre body wears a pearlescent Platinum White unique to this edition. Hand-polished mother of pearl is set into the centre console, the rotary switches and the sill plaques, and the cabin is trimmed in Copper Tan and Cream Truffle leather. The 6.0-litre V12 produces 600 PS, good for 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and 323 km/h.

This car is one of just ten Pearl Editions built and has covered only 29 km from new. It's essentially a delivery-mileage car, and it's still in the condition it left the factory in.

It was built for this region in a run of only ten, and it's one of the last great V12 Vanquish models. It's a rare piece for any serious Aston Martin collection.

Now available at Tomini Classics, Dubai.
