Introduction
Darren Rungasamy
Beautifully constructed and sculptured, the Rapide perfectly blurs the line between coupe and saloon.
Aston Martin is renowned for its accomplished supercars, quality and graceful styling, and know a thing or two about low-volume, rather special 4-door Supercars. Introduced in 2010, the Rapide could lay claim as the world's most elegant 4-door sports car. Its appeal goes way beyond its beauty, sharing its chassis with the DB9, the Rapide adds an element of practicality, without losing a single ounce of desirability. Powered by a ~470BHP 5.9-litre V12, Aston Martin's intent for the Rapide was also evident by the its beautifully sculpted interior and advanced aluminium construction. Quite simply put the Rapide was a cut above the best of the German Supersaloons.
Of the ~804 home-market Rapides, only seven home-market cars left the factory finished in "Amethyst Red". Used by the Aston Martin marketing team as a demo car and exhibit at events, this 2010 Aston Martin Rapide is fitted with a Touchtronic sequential transmission and is fully equipped with every option available at the time of production. This includes a set of 20” polished wheels, ventilated black leather seats, premium Bang & Olufsen audio system with rear entertainment package, front/rear parking sensors and a high specification alarm. It comes to market after ~2 years with our vendor, it was serviced in June 2024, just ~700 miles ago, has an MOT to July 2025 and comes with all three keys.

Hi, are you available to view the car on Monday or Tuesday next week, and are you happy to go for a test drive?

Hi Peter, thanks for your note. I am more than happy for you to come round to view the car and I can take you for a test drive, although Trade Classics has requested that all potential buyers should contact them before any viewings.

Hi Peter,
As Steve says if you could send an email to hello@tradeclassics.com, we can help arrange a viewing for you, we just need to do a couple of checks first.
