Aston Martin V8 Vantage 580X

The 580X was the last and most powerful of the four series of V8 Vantage, built from 1986 to 1990. This right-hand-drive car is one of 137 produced, and the works record describes it as one of eight RHD manual cars in this specification. It has the 5.3-litre quad-cam V8, rated at 432 bhp, and a five-speed ZF manual gearbox.

It is finished in its original Chichester Blue with Magnolia hides. It was supplied new through Stratton Motor Company to its first owner, who had it registered 759 CR. The car has been a magazine cover star several times, appearing on Classic & Sports Car in 1999, Classic Cars in 2002 and Vantage magazine in 2018. It also won the Valspar Trophy at the 2005 AMOC concours.

The history file includes the factory warranty card, service booklet, owner's book pack and records from well-known Aston specialists. The suspension and brakes were overhauled by Aston Service London in 2024, about 4,000 miles ago. The odometer reads 83,725 miles, and the car has recently completed a 1,500-mile trip across France.
