The Appeal

Incredibly pretty, very capable and impressively appointed, the DB7 owed much of its character to Jaguar - and what a result it was. The collaboration between two iconic British brands was an immediate smash hit. So much so, in fact, that it became the fastest-selling Aston Martin ever. The Vantage sold 7,000 units, and would inform the company's design language in every model after it. Make no mistake - what you're looking at is a milestone.

Powered by a big, powerful V12 powerplant, this example has been with its current keeper since 2014. Serviced regularly by an Aston Martin specialist, it's in fine order and will come with a fresh MOT to its ready and waiting to hit the road with the lucky new owner. These cars continue to be eminently usable, stylish classics - loaded with luxury and comfort.
