Introduced at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show, the V8 Vantage featured Aston Martin's advanced VH platform (bonded aluminium) architecture and a 4.3-litre 'quad-cam' dry-sump V8 developing some 380bhp and 302lbft. Available with a choice of manual or sportshift transmission, the newcomer was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds and 175mph. One of the new and hugely competent range of motorcars Aston Martin now offer. With just four former owners from new this superb-looking example comes with the six-speed manual transmission, and 19” seven-spoke alloy wheels.

Presented in metallic black with a contrasting leather interior, it also benefits from a black power hood and comes complete with satellite navigation, air-conditioning, Aston Martin alarm system, auto dim rear view mirror, bright finish grille and Xenon HID headlamps. In good condition throughout, the Aston is supplied with a V5C registration document, many old MoT records, sundry invoices, Aston Martin books, and a MoT test certificate valid until July 2022. Arguably the prettiest of modern-day Aston Martins, the V8 Vantage model looks fantastic and is even more impressive to drive.
