2008 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Cabrio

Aston Martin's bold claim that their roadster variant of the Vantage would have the stiffest chassis in class were questioned at the time but they were brought to reality with their ingenious aluminium chassis, If that wasn’t enough with a design team directed by Hendrik Fisker and rumors of input by Ian Callum it's no surprise that the Vantage was one of the most timeless roadsters brought to market.

Under the bonnet you’ll find a thunderous 4.3 litre V8 paired with a 6 speed sports shift transmission, Aston really wants you to push it to get your entertainment’s worth: peak power is locked away at the top of the rev range, and it's a similar story with the maximum torque figure.

The key to the Vantage’s timeless appeal has been its simplicity. The profile is constructed with clean, precise lines that perfectly intersect where they cause the least visual clutter. The proportions are millimetre perfect, whichever angle you view the car from, while details such as the distinctive tailgate spoiler and front wing air vents are effortlessly integrated into the design.

Delivered new into Australia by Sunshine Aston Martin in Queensland, this perfect example finished in an attractive and rare colour combination quickly made its way down the east coast and has spent the rest of its life here in Sydney. The cars ownership has been up to high standard and all the servicing is chronologically up-to-date by Aston Martin Dealerships and more recently Aston Martin Specialist. It is sure to impress its new keeper, whether pressed into service as a highly capable daily driver, or savoured for spirited weekend grand tourer.

Accompanied with the car will come the original service book, 2 sets of keys and a portfolio of maintenance receipts really reflecting the level of care previous owners have taken of this Vantage.

A low kilometres example in a desirable colour combination this Aston Martin is the perfect addition to a British collection or the most theatrical entrance into sports car ownership. Don’t miss out and drop in to see this beauty in the flesh.
