Introduction
Paul Wright
One of the best selling Aston Martins of all time - the Vantage just keeps getting better and better.
Exclusivity and devastating performance have traditionally been Aston Martin's attributes, but with the brand’s shift into the modern age, the Vantage also brought in a whole new set of dimensions to further the appeal. As a result, it became one of the best selling Aston Martins of all time. Originally unveiled as a concept car in 2003, the car attracted plenty of positive feedback, which led to the release of the Vantage in 2005. The elegant-styled aluminium bonded front-mid mounted GT sports car, was sold with both V8 and V12 options. Accolades soon followed, which eventually resulted in further evolutions and development of the car.
Aston Martin produced 24 variants of the Vantage, one of which was the Vantage V8 Roadster, the one we have here. At £91,000, which is over £8,000 more than the coupe, you could get your hands on Aston Martin’s latest roadster. To compensate for the lack of a roof, Aston increased the rigidity of the body with a super-stiff cross member across the bulk head, and the suspension is slightly stiffer than the coupe. When the roof is down, the car looks completely different, with the speedster style humps which house the roll over bars, should they be needed in the worst case scenario.
This stunning example has been cared for and pampered by Richard for the past 5 years. Finished in "Meteorite Silver Mica", this Vantage has relatively low miles and is in superb condition.
This auction listing was written from information supplied by Paul after meeting Richard the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

The last few invoices reference brakes needing attention-has this been actioned!
Hi, I haven’t had the discs replaced. When JCT 600 noted that the discs were getting low I took the car to my local garage which is owned by a good friend. He advised that there was no real need to have them replaced yet given the type of mileage I was doing. If you were planning to add a lot of miles or do track days they should probably be replaced but I would have no concerns about them at the moment for normal driving.
