2014 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Stratus White/obsidian Black 2700 Miles on 2040-cars
San Antonio, Texas, United States
|
If you have never experienced the breath taking beauty and excitement of an Aston Martin, you are letting all the good things in life pass you by. Besides having one of the most striking body designs ever to grace the automotive world, the Aston Martin Vantage is a thrill to drive. The 4.7 liter V8 makes the most incredible sound of any car on the road and provides enough acceleration to humble even a seasoned sports car veteran.
On the outside, the car is finished in Stratus White, which is a metallic white that sparkles beautifully in the sun. As all Aston Martin paint jobs, it is flawless with no orange peel anywhere on the car. Since I bought the car, I also had cQuartz Ceramic Paint Sealant applied to the car, which has a 5 year warranty. This alone was a $1000 treatment. 19 inch machined finish aluminum alloys are fitted with sticky Bridgestone Potenza tires. The windows have been coated with the highest quality Wincos tint for maximum heat and UV rejection. Open the door and the rich smell of leather is the first thing you notice. Not one square millimeter of the interior is made of vinyl or any other simulated leather. Every surface that looks like leather IS leather, and not the kind of cheap stuff you see in every Japanese car on the road either. Aston Martin uses only the best leather in the world. Accented with white contrast stitching, the interior on this car is absolutely the best you will find. Take a look at the image of the original window sticker on the car for a full list of standard and optional features. The MSRP on the car was just under $144,000, making this your chance to get a practically brand new car for a huge discount. After some recent inexplicable buying decisions on my part, I somehow ended up with 4 two-door cars. I need at least one vehicle that I can get more than two people in, so this one must go. Feel free to email me if you need any more info on this gorgeous piece of automotive art. |

Aston Martin's oldest car prepares for its 100th birthday bash
Mon, Mar 22 2021Aston Martin will celebrate in style the 100th birthday of its oldest-known remaining car. It will send the 1921 A3 to the annual Concours of Elegance taking place in September 2021 on the near outskirts of London. Fittingly, the Concours of Elegance is one of the most prestigious car shows in the world. It was first held in 2012 to mark the 60th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's reign over the United Kingdom. It retains royal ties, so showing to the event in a bondo-colored Renault 18 is completely out of the question. Aston Martin's A3 will fit right in, however. Its name signals that it's the third car built by Aston Martin, and that it's powered by a Type A engine, which denotes a side-valve four-cylinder tuned to develop about 11 horsepower. That's a rounding error in 2021, but it was impressive in the early 1920s, and it allowed the A3 to set several speed records. It notably averaged over 86 mph during a 100-mile event held at the Brooklands track, which 100 years later is commonly associated with Bentley. After extensive testing, Aston Martin sold the A3 in 1923. It was sold and bought several times until it ended up in the hands of a man named R.W. Mallabar. He shipped it back to Aston Martin's headquarters when a connecting rod failed, and he asked the company to refinish it in gray with red wheels while it was tearing apart the engine. The A3 then disappeared until 2002, when it appeared at an auction and its historical significance was uncovered. Aston Martin received the A3 as a generous donation in 2003, and it commissioned Ecurie Bertelli to give it a full — and painstakingly long — restoration. Its frame was rebuilt from scratch with ash wood, and it received a reproduction body made with hand-beaten panels. It's now black with black wheels, which is the livery it wore until Mallabar commissioned a respray. Its engine was rebuilt during the refurbishment, so it moves under its own power. Whether that means the A3 will drive to the event under its own power hasn't been revealed. Regardless, when it gets there, it will bask in the sun (or get drenched by a late-summer storm) next to a star-studded lineup of Gulf- and Martini-liveried race cars and other historically significant machines. It's a little too old to participate in the display put together to celebrate the Queen of England's 95th birthday; there will be one car for each year that she's been alive.
Electric Aston Martin Rapide could be on the way
Thu, Apr 2 2015Aston Martin is looking into building an electric version of the Rapide to launch in the next two or three years. Andy Palmer, the company's new chief executive, said so to the Wall Street Journal at the New York Auto Show this week. A spokesman confirmed the plans to Autoblog. The project would bring in an as-yet undisclosed partner that could come from Silicon Valley, and while we don't know at this point just which company that would be, Palmer said it's not Tesla. Having formerly held senior positions at the Renault Nissan Alliance, Palmer has a wealth of experience with EVs that he brings with him to the British automaker that was recently infused with cash. This wouldn't be the first time that Aston would be experimenting with the prospect of electric propulsion. It showcased the DBX electric crossover coupe concept at the Geneva Motor Show, and even fielded a hybrid hydrogen-powered version of the Rapide in a 24-hour endurance race at the Nurburgring a couple of years ago. The Rapide is Aston's four-door model, based closely on the DB9. It was launched in 2010 after a concept version from 2006. After initially being produced under contract by Magna Steyr in Austria, Aston moved assembly back home in 2012. A revised Rapide S ensued the following year, upping output from its 6.0-liter V12 engine from 470 horsepower to 550 and swapping the six-speed automatic for an eight-speed. According to the WSJ, Palmer also confirmed a new crossover and large luxury sedan in the pipeline, the latter to compete with Rolls-Royce and both of which we expect will wear the Lagonda badge revived by the new Taraf launched in Dubai.
