S with more power, sharper steering and firmer handling
Full Aston Martin service history
New MOT valid to end August 2025
Recently serviced at Aston Edinburgh
Only 26,007 miles documented from new
(finance marker)
The Appeal
The V8 Vantage took the fight directly to Porsche. The S model, with its sharper steering and handling and extra power, assembled the tanks right on the 911’s doorstep.
Reviewers and owners rate these cars highly. And with good reason. There’s 430bhp on tap, they look fantastic and they drive brilliantly.
Beyond the standard features, a good V8 Vantage S is all about specification. This eschews the more common greys and silvers in favour a firmly understated black theme. It has been well done, the Obsidian Black metallic complemented by black roof, dark grey anodised 19in factory split spokes and a Vantage S interior with black leather stitched in white.
The condition is a hint to this car’s sales weapon: it is an exceptionally low mileage car - just 26,007 documented miles from new - backed by full Aston Martin main dealer service history.
The car was last serviced by Aston Martin Edinburgh less than a year ago and carries a full MOT to the end of August 2025 with no advisories.
