While the Vantage did bear some resemblance to the Virage, closer examination would reveal many differences - more obvious of which are the deep front spoiler, its lower stance and the flared wheel arches, which all combine to give the car a fearsome appearance.
Priced at close to £200,000 when new, these rare and powerful cars were hand built at The Aston Martin factory at Newport Pagnell. It was equipped with a 5.3L V8 engine sporting twin superchargers. The Power output was around 550 bhp, and the torque was equally impressive at 555 ft/lbs. Top speed was 186 mph, with a 0-60mph time of just 4.6 seconds an astonishing feat for such a large car.Chassis 70101 is one of just 126 RHD Vantages built and it is an original 6 speed manual gearbox version.
Registered in 1995 it has had many detailed improvements, such as the refined four dial dash and the addition of twin cooling fans.This car also benefits from other additional upgrades such as a works fitted traction control system and a large screen Alpine GPS system.
This particular Vantage is finished in Rolls Royce Royal Blue with Parchment hide, piped blue with dark blue carpets.The car has covered just 36,000 miles and is presented with a full service history along with the number plate VEV 563 which pays tribute to the famous racing Aston Martin DB4 Zagato "2 VEV'.A great opportunity to purchase a rare but useable supercar, hand built by Aston Martin, and offered at a sensible price guide today.
