Description

1996 ASTON MARTIN VANTAGE V550

Finished in sensational Rothesay Red metallic with Magnolia hide interior and equipped with 6 speed manual transmission.

The V550 standard specification includes 8 way electric seating, climate control, ABS braking and drivers air bag safety features. Delivering 550 bhp the 5.3 litre twin supercharged engine drives a 6 speed manual gearbox and gives the car a 0-60 time of 4.6 sec’s and a top speed of 186 mph. All, whilst enjoying a sumptuous and generous 2+2 cabin trimmed in finest quality Connolly hides, Wilton Wool carpeting and highly polished burr walnut finishers.

A quintessential ‘Brute in a Suite’, the 1993-2000 Aston Martin Vantage V550 was the last model produced entirely by hand at the Newport Pagnell factory, with just 280 examples being built before the factory being closed and remodelled, for Vanquish production. An anachronism of its day, the Vantage V550’s only rival, combining the level of luxury and performance of the Vantage V550, was Bentley’s Continental T, the most expensive production car of the day.

The wonderfully preserved car we are again pleased to offer, having supplied it to its two former owners, has a superb service record with ourselves, Aston Martin Works and AM main dealers. Invoices contained in the leather bound history folder clearly demonstrate no expense has been spared, in the maintenance and upkeep of this car, which is supplied complete with all original hand books, tools, vehicle jack and factory build sheet.

Now having covered 33,000 miles from new, this superb example of the car last truly hand built model, is supplied inclusive of a manufacturer scheduled service, 12 months Warranty and MoT certificate.

Available for viewing and demonstration now at our Hertfordshire showrooms.
