The Aston Martin Vanquish S Red Arrows Edition is the latest creation from the Q by Aston Martin personalisation division. This special edition pays tribute to the iconic RAF (Royal Air Force) aerobatic display team, the Red Arrows. The production run is limited to ten cars, although only nine will be available to customers as the last unit will be delivered to the RAF.

The styling of the Vanquish S special edition is characterised by Eclat Red paint (the same colour used by the Red Arrows). Among the exterior details, white and blue stripes contrast with the red bodywork. In addition, a white stripe along the side of the car nods to the smoke trails commonly associated with aircraft. The roof is finished in carbon fibre with the emblem that the display team carries on its jets. Another standout feature of this model is its titanium exhaust system.

Production is limited to ten units, but only nine will be available to customers The special edition also includes details of the Red Arrows in the cabin. The upholstery and seatbelts in green match the fabric of the old flight suits, and the Red Arrows logo is embroidered on the seat backs and on the door sill plates. In addition, each pilot of the display team will sign the engine plates. The steering wheel also features a gear selector inspired by RAF aircraft.

The rear seats have been replaced by a holder for two helmets, which are included with the special edition. Among the accessories included with this model are: two racing overalls and tailored pilot jackets, a set of luggage, a car cover, and a scale model of the car and the Hawk Red Arrow aircraft.
