Aston Martin launches V8 Vantage S Great Britain Edition, only for China

Aston Martin recently debuted its V8 Vantage S Great Britain edition at the Shanghai Auto Show, and it’s going to be available only in China. Although mechanically identical to a standard V8 Vantage, this special edition car flaunts unique cosmetic enhancements. Built by the company’s ‘Q’ bespoke services division, this latest beauty boasts a unique paint finish in Stratus White with blue-tinted wing mirrors and rear light inserts, custom embroidery and handmade badges that boast a Union Flag pattern, while a final exterior reference to the British flag can be found on the brakes, which boast red calipers.  Inside, metal rotary switches are finished in anodized blue, the seats feature the wave quilting pattern usually reserved for its Zagato co-designed cars, there’s Aurora Blue leather and Union Jack embroidered details. With all of those Great Britain references, we do wonder why it is meant only for China !
