In co-operation with HWM Aston Martin, Walton on Thames, Les Goble the former Head of Performance Driving at Aston Martin Lagonda, revisits and drives the Newport Pagnell Aston Martin Vanquish V12.

In this episode, Garry Taylor chats with Les about the perceived Vanquish gearbox issues and how to get the best driving experience from the Vanquish. Plus his early memories of the Vanquish from launch.

This podcast is also supported by a video, where we further dispel some of the myths that surround the Vanquish gearbox and also the later Sports Shift boxes.  Les take us on a drive explaining  how to get the best from the car whether on hill starts, driving in heavy traffic, very subtle changes to your driving technique to eliminate jerkiness and much more. The video can be seen on the AMHT website at www.amht.org.uk/videos
