Introduced for the 2006 model year, Aston Martin's V8 Vantage Coupé was launched at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show. Although it resurrected a famous model designation from the company's past, the latest Vantage was all-new, featuring a 4.3-litre quad-cam V8 engine loosely patterned on Jaguar's 'AJ' unit and equipped with dry-sump lubrication. The latter enabled the engine to be mounted low in the chassis for better handling, while the use of a rear transaxle resulted in near-perfect 49/51 front-rear weight distribution. Exquisitely designed and detailed while possessing class-leading agility and performance, the Vantage was nevertheless a practical two-seater with a large tailgate and 10.5ft³ rear luggage compartment. In May, 2008, Aston Martin introduced numerous updates for the Vantage, the most significant being a revised engine of 4.7 litres capacity producing 420bhp and 347lb ft of torque (a 15 per cent. increase). Thanks to the increased power and torque there was a welcome boost in performance, the 0-60mph time dropping to 4.7 seconds and the top speed increasing to 180mph.

With four owners and just over 22,000 miles covered from new, this striking Lightning Silver V8 Vantage appears as a very well-preserved example of Aston Martin’s elegant compact GT. Finished to a very high specification with an interior in Obsidian Black Caithness leather with Silver stitching, Piano Black facia trim and a Tailor’s Grey Alcantara headlining, other features include Bluetooth telephone preparation, front parking sensors, heated sports seats, sports suspension and 19in V-spoke Graphite DT wheels. This particular model is very much tailored for the driving enthusiast, being equipped with the post-2008 4.7-litre V8 and the six-speed Graziano manual gearbox.

Delivered new on 23rd June, 2012, although not registered until May, 2013 (as ‘VX13 DHL’), it has seemingly been very well cared-for across its whole life, with four main dealer services and two marque specialist services across its life, the most recent service being at 18,555 miles. The present owner has overseen a period of light use and regular maintenance since 2020.

All things considered, it is no surprise that the Aston presents so well in all aspects, with the paint, interior and mechanicals all appearing in very good condition. A true modern classic designed with spirited Continental touring in mind, it promises many thousands more miles of satisfying motoring. It is offered for sale with the current V5C, the original book pack including the combined owner’s manual and service record, assorted invoices and MOT certificates, plus a valid MOT at the time of sale.
