2007 Aston Martin Vantage on 2040-cars
Santa Anna, Texas, United States
Platinum Warranty (A) from LaSalle Warranty Group until September 25, 2015 (another 3 months). Not your typical
AMV8. Very well cared for ( I hand wash it using the AMMO NY method ) and upgraded. Installed wheel spacers, H&R
lowering Springs, custom hand-fabricated aluminum air intake (larger and smoother ID than the original ugly rubber
"snorkle" more air, more power), professionally painted over all exterior chrome (front grill, side grill slits,
window trim) and rims with Titanium Gunmetal (even the custom air intake). Car was tuned by Fastlane in December of
2013 to get every bit of power out of the engine. This car drives and handles superbly. The blue/ saddle leather
interior still has the most pleasant new-car aroma. Bluetooth, Aston Premium sound system, driver and passenger
adjustable power seats with adjustable lumbar control, heated seats, auto climate control, red caliper Aston brakes
(made by Brembo). Previous owner replaced the clutch at 16,000 miles (sooner than necessary, but one less thing to
worry about). New rotors and Carbotech brakes May 2014. Partial clear bra on the hood, mirrors and front of car. I
purchase nice cars to drive for a few months and then sell them. This car has been with me for 19 months now as it
is very difficult for me to part with. I only drive it twice a month and when the wife wants to go out in town;
hence the low miles: I only put about 4,200 miles in 18 months. **UPDATE: Due to failing state inspection, I just
had the dealer replace one O2 sensor, the catalytic convertor and the re-called seat heater unit. No issues with
this car. I am the 4th owner. Previous owners were in North Texas and Arizona. I have not titled the car since I
have Dealer Plates on it; original title in hand. There is normal wear and tear and the clear bra would be better
replaced with some of the newer technology.

Aston Martin makes RapidE electric car a limited edition after LeEco pulls out
Mon, Jun 26 2017Aston Martin was forced to scale back production plans for its first electric model after cash-strapped investment partner LeEco pulled out of the project, Chief Executive Andy Palmer told Reuters on Monday. The result, though, may be an even more exclusive car, aimed at customers who consider Tesla's top of the range $130,000 Model S to be a little too run of the mill. Aston Martin will build only 155 of its RapidE, about a third of the initial plan, and lean more heavily on Formula One engineering specialist Williams after the withdrawal of Chinese TV and smartphone vendor LeEco, Palmer said. The setback and Aston's response underscore the challenges and risks niche carmakers face as they scramble to address future demand for electrification from consumers and regulators. While the privately held Aston Martin brand benefits from the endorsement of fictitious spy James Bond, it lacks the backing of a large automotive parent that many rivals enjoy. "We've decided to make this car rare, which will obviously tend to push the price higher," Palmer said. "Aston Martin now plans to proceed independently, funding further development of RapidE by ourselves." Palmer agreed to be interviewed after sources told Reuters Aston Martin's partnership with LeEco had unraveled. Unveiling the alliance in February last year, LeEco and Aston pledged to launch an all-electric version of the Rapide S sedan in 2018. But the Chinese conglomerate has since slashed its electric car investments, including its U.S. startup Faraday Future's planned $1.3 billion factory in Nevada. Some Faraday suppliers, including seat maker Futuris and media provider Mill Group, have sued the company for non-payment, according to court records. Spokesmen for LeEco and Faraday did not respond to requests for comment on the end of the Aston partnership. Aston Martin declined to discuss its partner's business. $250,000 PRICE TAG Aston returned to profit in the first quarter, a decade after it was sold by Ford. Now owned by private equity groups Investindustrial and Kuwait's Investment Dar, the company is rolling out a new model each year under a taut recovery plan drawn up by Palmer, who joined from Nissan in 2014. Without LeEco's backing, the sports carmaker, based in Gaydon, Warwickshire, is pushing ahead as sole investor in the electric car, after paring down production and pushing back the launch date to 2019. The plan won board approval on June 21.
Aston Martin barn finds highlight $16M Bonhams sale
Tue, May 12 2015Every year, Bonhams holds an auction of classic Aston Martins at the automaker's historic home in Newport Pagnell. But never has it brought in as much as it did this year. The 16th annual Aston Martin Sale, held this past weekend, raked in an impressive GBP10,280,275 in sales – equivalent to nearly $16 million at current exchange rates. Among the highlights of the 50 classic Astons sold were a number of barn finds, including a pair of DB Mark II sports saloons from 1958 that doubled the pre-sale estimates to sell for GBP104,540 and GBP115,740, respectively. Those weren't even the top lots of the day, though. A 1962 DB4 Series IV Vantage Convertible that was once owned by legendary thespian Sir Peter Ustinov sold for GBP1,513,500, while a 1966 DB5 Vantage Convertible went for GBP1,524,700 to claim the top spot. "The quintessentially British marque of Aston Martin attracts interest from enthusiasts across the world, a fact demonstrated here again this year as we took bids from all corners of the globe," said Bonhams' Tim Schofield. "The sale attracted a larger and more cosmopolitan attendance than ever before, achieving an excellent result." The auction was complemented by the Spring Concours held by the Aston Martin Owners Club down the road at Woburn Abbey in nearby Bedfordshire, bringing out a record assembly of 350 Astons old and new. The company used the occasion to mark the UK debut of the new Lagonda Taraf as well.

Watch Top Gear lap the Aston Martin Vulcan at Yas Marina
Mon, Mar 7 2016Late last month, we reported on Top Gear – that's the magazine, not the TV show – getting its first crack at the new Aston Martin Vulcan. While impressions of the track star were limited to text, the famous British mag has now released video of its close encounter at the Yas Marina Circuit. You want to watch this video. Despite Top Gear not actually being on the air, it's pretty clear the video team on the magazine end has taken a lot of inspiration from the telly. Stylistically, this is a good thing. But it's also good because of the details we can see on the Vulcan. Every louver, scoop, and slat seems to get attention, and the footage where the entire car is featured is just gorgeous. If you don't have flashbacks of Clarkson, Hammond, and May within the first five seconds of the video – when the Vulcan executes a lovely slide on corner exit – then we suggest you watch more TG. Driving the car is Ollie Marriage, the same bloke that wrote last month's piece on the Vulcan, and his sentiments largely echo the text. Only, you know, there's a lot more engine noise. And gear whine. And flames. Like we said, you want to watch this video. And you can. It's embedded up top. Have a look. Related Video:
