Aston Martin V8 Vantage “GT Spec” by CTR – The Vantage as It Always Should Have Been
This is no ordinary V8 Vantage. It’s one of the earliest and rarest CTR (Challenge the Road) “GT Spec” builds—crafted by the specialists widely regarded as the benchmark for improving and perfecting Aston Martin’s V8 platform. CTR have a reputation for taking the Vantage’s beautiful foundation and refining every weakness, elevating response, dynamics, and durability to levels the factory never quite achieved.
With just ~36, 000 miles and a fresh 12-month MOT, this GT Spec car benefits from extensive CTR development work, tuning, and high-quality refurbishment. Tuned to produce 410bhp, it pulls with a clarity and urgency far beyond the standard 4. 3, while remaining wonderfully usable day-to-day.
CTR’s upgrades don’t just add performance—they transform the way the car feels. Sharper turn-in, cleaner power delivery, tighter chassis feedback and a depth of mechanical precision that makes the car feel newer, more focused and more alive. It’s the Vantage reimagined - the way it should have been from new.
Significant recent work includes a powder-coated subframe, new LED headlights, extensive suspension and mechanical refresh, and a suite of CTR performance improvements that ensure this example is as sorted underneath as it is stunning to look at.
