Classic Meteorite Grey with Obsidian Black Leather
Full Service History & Just 59,000 Miles
The Appeal
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage first graced our roads in 2005, positioned as the brands ‘baby’ sports car. Smaller, lighter, and more agile than the DB9 or Vanquish, with a naturally aspirated 4.3 litre V8.
In 2011, Aston brought us the V8 Vantage S which took the engine to 4.7 litres, injecting it with more muscle and providing significantly sharper handling thanks to a quicker steering rack, revised springs and dampers and wider rear tyres. With 430bhp on tap, a 7-speed gearbox, it’s no wonder these cars are almost unanimously rated as the most thrilling, and well-balanced V8 Vantages Aston ever built.
Driving aside, the cabin feels like a very special place to be. The supple leather, alcantara headlining, and carbon fibre trim provides for an air of luxury while at the same time ensuring you are totally connected to the road.
With such low mileage and excellent condition supported up by a full service history and a full 12 months MOT, this car should certainly get some bidders juices flowing.
