This is an Aston Martin V8 Volante in X-Pack specification, the most powerful form of the 5.3-litre V8 offered in the late-1980s cars. It is paired with a three-speed automatic gearbox, and in its day it counted among the fastest 2+2 convertibles on sale.
It has covered 12,750 miles from new and is described as unrestored and original. The colour is Suffolk Red with tan leather and burgundy piping. It was sold to its second owner in 1990 and has stayed in the same family since. The V5 shows two keepers, and the car is said to have spent most of its life in dehumidified storage.
The history file includes the warranty card for chassis 15788 and a first service carried out at Newport Pagnell in June 1989. Twelve services are recorded, from Aston Martin Lagonda through Rikki Cann, Rayleigh Weir Cars and Christian Lewis, with the latest in July 2024 at 12,539 miles. Two sets of keys and the book pack are included.
