Featuring a bonded aluminium structure for strength and lightness, the V8 Vantage featured Aston’s new automated/manual gearbox option, the Sportshift. The Vantage was an immediate success with some dealers estimating a three-year waiting list by the time the car was first shown. The car would later go on to receive Jeremy Clarkson’s 2005 Best Sounding Car of the Year and is now considered one of the best-looking cars of all time and has become an undisputed modern classic. In May 2008, Aston Martin announced new technological updates for the Vantage starting in the 2009 model year, which included changes to the engine, transmission, suspension and appearance.
New cylinder liners that were now pressed into the aluminium block instead of the original cast-in variants allow a thinner liner, which in turn allows a larger capacity of 4.7 litre.
The ‘Sportshift’ automated manual transmission benefited from a software update and a new dual throttle mapping update, while a lightened flywheel was introduced alongside stiffened suspension and updated Bilstein dampers. The interior changed slightly, using an updated console similar to the Aston Martin DBS and the update provided the Vantage with a power increase to 420bhp, an 11% increase, and a peak torque of 347 lb⋅ft at 5,750, a 15% increase, providing the car with additional reserves of mid-range performance. Following the updates, the Vantage is able to accelerate from 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds and reach a higher top speed of 180mph.
Presented in Merlot Red with matching hood and contrasting biscuit leather trim, this later 4.7 litre example of the V8 Vantage Volante boasts the optional Aero Package including front splitter and extended side skirts. Offered with a comprehensive main dealer and specialist history, this example has an MoT test certificate until May 2027, provided with no advisories. Originally registered in Japan, this car is noted as being particularly good underneath due to the better driving conditions and presents very well indeed in what is a rare colourway.
