As of 15 November 2026, 72 Aston Martin Vanquish and 25 Ferrari 12Cilindri are for sale at UK specialist dealers. The typical asking price is £109,975 for the Aston Martin Vanquish and £380,000 for the Ferrari 12Cilindri.
The Aston Martin Vanquish is Aston's front-engined V12 flagship. The name covers the original 2001-2007 car, the 2012-2018 generation and the twin-turbo model launched in 2024. The Ferrari 12Cilindri, which replaced the 812 Superfast in 2024, is Maranello's front-engined V12 grand tourer. The current cars are close in power and both come as a coupe or a convertible, so buyers often weigh one against the other.

The Vanquish suits a buyer who wants a long-distance V12 GT with huge low-down pull from its twin-turbo 5.2-litre engine. Buyers with a smaller budget can also choose from two earlier naturally aspirated generations, including Volante and Zagato versions.
The 12Cilindri suits a buyer who wants a naturally aspirated V12. Its 6.5-litre engine revs to 9,500rpm and drives through a quick-shifting dual-clutch gearbox. It also has four-wheel steering, which sharpens it on a good road while it remains usable as a grand tourer.
On paper the current cars are very close. The deciding factor is how each one delivers its power. The Vanquish's turbocharged V12 gives far more torque from low revs, which makes it effortless when overtaking and covering long distances. The 12Cilindri's naturally aspirated V12 builds its power with revs, and it has the sharper response and the more theatrical sound. If you want a lower-cost V12 Vanquish, the earlier generations are a different kind of car from the 2024 model, so judge them on their own merits.

Ferrari quotes 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds for the 12Cilindri, and Aston Martin quotes 3.3 seconds for the 2024 Vanquish. The Vanquish has the higher claimed top speed: 214mph against 211mph.
The current Vanquish makes 824bhp and the 12Cilindri makes 819bhp, so there is little between them. The bigger difference is torque. The Vanquish produces 1,000Nm, roughly 50% more than the Ferrari.
No. The 12Cilindri uses a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12, while the 2024 Vanquish uses a twin-turbocharged 5.2-litre V12. Earlier Vanquish generations used a naturally aspirated 5.9-litre V12.
Yes. The Vanquish is available as a Volante, and the 12Cilindri is available as a Spider. Earlier generations of the Vanquish were also offered as a Volante, and there were limited-run Zagato Volante and Speedster models.
Not directly. The 2001-2007 and 2012-2018 cars are less powerful and built on older platforms. They're best seen as a different way into V12 ownership rather than as rivals to the Ferrari.
