The Heritage Edition cars were the first AM6 Vantage to wear the racing aero kit, comprising of carbon fibre rear wing, dive planes and extended front splitter to increase downforce by 194 kg at 190 mph.

The standard UK price for the car started at £174,000 but certain liveries require a royalty payment which pushed them higher. The DBR9 Gulf car is the most expensive at £189,000. The edition was limited to 60 cars overall and it is believed the DBR9 was the most popular. Aston Martin Heritage Trust believes that the AMR1 and Razor Blade cars remain unique.

AMR1 (1989)

The AMR1 Heritage Car is finished in Club Sport White with Union Jack graphics, front to back centre stripe in blue with Mobil 1 style logos. The AMR1 was announced in August 1987 and the successor to the Nimrod, a joint venture between Aston Martin and Ecurie Ecosse and built to FISA Group C regulations. The car was powered by a 4-valve per cylinder mid-mounted V8 engine and had an advanced kevlar/carbon-fibre monocoque chassis.

Razor Blade (1923)

Developed by Bamford and Martin to be the first car to exceed 100 mph, it been subsequently claimed that the Razor Blade is indeed the narrowest racing car in the world. The Razor Blade car was finished in Spirit Silver with green graphics, which emulate the polished body and green painted chassis of the original 1923 car.

Ulster (1934-35)

The Ulster team cars of 1934 and 1935and 5 in their striking Italian Racing Red paint, paid homage to one of Aston Martin’s most influential car designers – the Italian, Augustus Ceasare Bertelli. Bertelli’s cars saw much success, coming 3rd overall at Le Mans, winning its class, and finishing 4th in the RAC Tourist Trophy race. The cars are widely regarded as the pinnacle of pre-war racing cars. The Heritage Racing Edition cars were painted in Suffolk Red with white graphics and ‘Aston Martin’ written on the side gills in a delightful hand painted script as used before the second world war.
