Vantage514 is infamous around these parts
Pre MY09 (06-08) Vantage dampers are Multimatics.

Sorry I don't have part numbers handy, but this may help.

AM Bits doesn't typically state part numbers unless you specifically ask for them. I've got my guesses as to why

Depends on what your VIN is.
Fronts for cars up to VIN *C02951, the spring and damper assembly is part# 6G33-18B036-AF. From *C02952 until MY2007 it's 6G33-18B036-AG.

Rears are 6G33-18080-AF up to *C02951 and then 6G33-18080-AG until MY07.

Take that with a grain of salt... Aston has a habit of superseding parts. Even if they're listed in the parts diagrams AND in their current price sheets, it doesn't mean they're available. (I got slapped in the face with that today!)

Thanks.

Do you have the part numbers for the shocks alone (without springs)? (my VIN is 02030).

I also asked AM themselves, for the record, here is their response:

"According to the vehicle specification information the car was originally supplied with standard suspension, therefore the 2006 model vantage would be fitted with the following:

Complete front suspension spring and damper assembly 6G33-18B036-AH

Complete rear suspension sparing and damper assembly 6G33-18080-AH

Or

Front damper unit 6G33-18141-AF

Rear damper unit 6G33-18142-AF"
