The model presented is an Aston Martin V8 Vantage, launched in January 2008. Equipped with a 4.3 l V8 engine of 385 hp, it symbolizes a timeless and timeless English know-how. In perfect aesthetic condition with its original grey color, its bodywork has no scratches or dents. Its interior and its burgundy red seats are in good condition and match perfectly with its exterior color and dashboard elements.
Of French origin and maintained exclusively at Aston Martin, it has a complete maintenance booklet available, underlining the care taken. It has 4 new tires, a new battery and brakes in good condition. Its last maintenance at 92,800 km dates back to November 2021 and its technical control of June 2021 is clean. A new technical control will be done for the sale.
The two-seat V8 coupe first appeared at the Detroit Auto Show in 2003 as a prototype called the AMV8 Vantage, and was finally unveiled in its final form at the 2005 Geneva Auto Show. Initiated by former Aston Martin design boss Hernirk Fisker, the project behind this compact coupe was to embody elegance and sportiness.
Slightly more expensive than a 997 (its direct competitor), the V8 Vantage stood out thanks to a sumptuous and much more original design, while displaying an impeccable quality of conception.
Based on the VH (vertical horizontal) platform introduced by the DB9, the V8 Vantage is more on the side of compact sports cars, with a length of 4.38 meters. Its size is certainly contained, but this is not the case for its engine cover, which has probably already been designed to accommodate the future V12 engine from the DBS.
Initially, the coupe was equipped with a Jaguar 4.3-liter V8 of 380 horsepower, benefiting from numerous improvements such as the appearance of a dry sump. Located in the front center and very low in the chassis, it is coupled to a manual or robotized gearbox, located on the rear axle in order to optimize the weight distribution.
Sold in more than 10,000 units by 2008, the V8 received a major update the same year, particularly in terms of the engine. The V8 engine was upgraded to 4.7 liters, producing 420 horsepower and more torque, while being available over a wider rpm range. In addition, the coupe has a firmer chassis thanks to Bilstein shock absorbers and its interior has been slightly modified.
