Introduction

One of only 10 V400s - a rare Aston Martin featuring a tuned V8 and other tasteful upgrades, perfect for collectors.
HWM is the oldest and most established Aston Martin dealer, selling their cars since 1951. The V400 was commissioned directly by HWM, built and upgraded by Aston Martin at their factory as part of a limited run of just ten cars, with this being a rare manual gearbox model. The V400 was based on the 2008 4.3L V8 Vantage but featured tasteful modifications, including a tuned engine delivering approximately ~400BHP, heated seats, satellite navigation, 19" lightweight sport alloys, cruise control, Bluetooth, DBS-style clear rear lights, and numbered sill plates. The iconic nose-to-tail racing stripes were optional; however, this particular example stands out with them.
The current vendor has owned this example for the past ~5 years. The car is in excellent condition with low mileage, and is sold with its private number plate "V400 WOW". It comes with two sets of keys and a current MOT valid until 24.06.2025, and was also serviced by the main dealer in June too. On top of all of this, in the current ownership, the car has had a lightweight flywheel and dual plate clutch kit fitted, transforming the experience all for the better.
This listing was written from information supplied by Glyn after meeting Kevin the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.
