1993 Aston Martin Virage Volante 5.3 V8 Auto. Finished in Porsche Nachtblau Metallic Blue with Special Red Leather and dark Blue Mohair Hood lined with Special Red Alcantara. Left Hand Drive with 4-speed automatic transmission. Just one of only 120 LHD cars built out of a total of 234 Volante cars produced between 1992 and 1996. Purchased directly on a personal export basis from the factory by an established Aston Martin owner in Germany, with a first registration 20th of May 1993. Covering 64,500 km equating to just 40,000 miles from new.
The Virage is the last of the hand-built alloy bodied Astons and the sheer luxury and craftmanship put into producing this model is immediately evident on viewing. The quality of the red leather seats and dash, deep pile carpeting and wood veneer are obvious and perhaps why the Virage is often referred to as a Bentley with attitude. The 5.3 V8 develops 330hp and with a very impressive 364 lb. ft of torque elevates this predominantly Grand Tourer to near sports car levels.
Presenting in quite exceptional condition and aided by the evidence of its extensive service and maintenance with every workshop event recorded in detail from new up to 63,600 km. All this and more are contained in its own exhaustive History File which includes correspondence between the first owner and Aston Martin, along with the original purchase invoice for £128,330 in 1993, which adjusting for inflation would equate to around £240,000 today. After being acquired by its third Dutch owner in 2001 it returned to the UK in 2019 remaining in a private collection since.
Comes complete with its original Aston Martin Hand and Service/instruction books, 10 Disc CD Player, spare keys, spare wheel and all tools.
Just as with its V8 predecessor the Virage Volante has consistently been better received in the market place than its saloon variant. This original left-hand-drive car presents in a striking and attractive colour combination and offers a great opportunity for classic Continental touring but with many of the luxuries we have become accustomed to in more modern cars.
