Description
We are really pleased to offer for sale this outstanding example of what is Aston Martins greatest tourers.
She has covered a mere 48, 000 fully warranted miles from new and has a very impressive history file with every service document from new and all original MOT’s
Finished in its original stunning deep dark forest green with Cream piped dark green leather interior.
Interestingly, the car had a starring role in advertisements for the luxury car product company AutoGlym in the 1980’s.
That shot was of a chauffeur straightening his tie in the reflection of the superbly polished bonnet of the car.
Unsurprisingly, it was the model of choice for the Chairman of the Aston Martin Owners Club and indeed our car was also selected to represent the V8 Volante model in Aston Martin ‘The Compleat Car’ the illustrated history of Aston Martin, by Alan Archer, Neil Murray, Ted Cutting and Richard Williams, published in 1994 by Palawan Press established by Simon Draper, a well-known enthusiast for the marque. Photograph(s) of this car and the owners credit can be seen on pages 208/ 209.
This is a car that has been superbly maintained from new with a full history file showing all services and maintenance records with regular visits to Newport Pagnell, RS Williams, Chapman Spooner and Ian Mason.
Worlds apart from the usual tatty V8 Volantes with chequered history that sit in the classifieds.
A good example to show the level of expenditure lavished on this fine example is £23, 000 spent in 2003 and £8, 000 spent with its most recent owner in 2022/ 23
Invoices in the file include, gearbox and torque converter overhaul, sill restoration, unleaded conversion to name a few.
4 previous keepers.
