2008 Aston Martin Vantage V8 convertible low, low reserve


Perfect condition 2008 Aston Martin Vantage V8 convertible. It has the 4.3 liter, 380 horse V8 mated to the automated manual Sportshift transmission. It also has navigation, factory iphone/cellphone integration, and all power options including doors, trunk, windows, mirrors, and seats. This car is an absolute blast to drive whether the top is up or down and Aston definitely hit the nail on the head with the smooth V8 and exhaust note on these cars. Aston Martin is one of the few cars out there today that are still hand-built and the extremely high level of craftsmanship definitely shows in this car. The quality of the leather, stitch-work and overall fit and finish that Aston Martins exhibit is truly remarkable. An Aston Martin Vantage is not simply another luxury sports car like a Mercedes SL, Corvette, Nissan GTR, etc... It is a rolling work of art and a fine example of high performance engineering and quality British craftsmanship. I assisted a good friend of mine in finding and purchasing this car in the fall of 2010. He is the second owner of this car and has had it most of its life at almost 4 years. I am a total car nut and have owned everything from old Military trucks to Ferrari's and Porsche's so he has enlisted my help to list it for him. Also, he lives in Tucson and there isn't an Aston Martin dealership there so he would leave the car with me in Scottsdale whenever he needed regular service. It is truly an amazing car in absolutely pristine condition but rarely gets driven with only 16k miles so he has decided to sell. It has never been driven in rain or bad conditions of any kind and since we live here in Arizona and it was originally from Southern California, it has never come close to seeing snow. The color scheme and wheels is what originally drew us to this car and I think it really sets this Aston apart from the other Vantages on the road. The exterior color is Tungsten Silver Metallic with a black soft-top in perfect condition and a unique two-tone black and saddle brown leather interior that all really do this car justice. The wheels are custom TSW 19" with Bridgestone Potenza 235/40's up front and 274/35's in the rear. Everything works perfectly and as it should on this car and we have had all service work performed at the Aston Martin dealership in North Scottsdale, although these are not pretentious cars at all to maintain and do not require any outlandish servicing like many other ultra-luxury brands. I also have the original Navigation DVD, manual, and 2 sets of keys/remotes. Unfortunately, prices have slumped off on these cars in recent months so we don't expect to get anywhere near Kelly Blue Book's current retail price of $117,102 but it's at least good to know that even Kelly Blue Book recognizes the value of these cars and of course, that number definitely couldn't hurt if you ever wanted to finance this car. This Aston has been meticulously cared for its entire life and has always been store in a climate controlled garage. Ready to sell fast with an extremely low reserve so bid with confidence.

2017 Aston Marin Lagonda could live on Mercedes M-Class platform

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

A few weeks ago, we brought you news from the launch of the Aston Martin Vanquish Volante that the British brand, which is formally known as Aston Martin Lagonda, was still planning on going ahead with a Lagonda-badged crossover. Now comes word that that vehicle could very well be based on a Mercedes-Benz M-Class.
When the first Lagonda Concept debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, it sat on a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class platform, some four years before Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG deal was inked. And with that partnership, which will see Aston Martin gain access to AMG electrics and "bespoke, V8 powertrains," the opportunities for platform sharing are many.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, the boss of Aston Martin, told the UK's AutoCar, "I look at what Porsche is doing with the 911 as its core business and then it is able to do models like the Cayenne based on the Volkswagen Touareg. It is good business." We've said many times that we'll tolerate exotic CUVs and SUVs if it means keeping the beloved core models alive, which has been the case with Porsche. We see no reason Aston Martin wouldn't be able to do the same.

Maybach and Aston Martin alliance talks fall apart

Tue, 27 Sep 2011

If you have, like us, been salivating at the notion of a new generation of Maybach and Lagonda ultra-luxury crafts built by Aston Martin, we've got some bad news: According to reports emanating from Germany, talks between AML and Daimler have broken down.
The proposal under negotiation would have seen Daimler outsourcing production of the next family of Maybach models to Aston Martin, which in return would benefit from Mercedes-Benz platforms and engines - not only for its svelte GTs, but also for its own future Lagonda line of limousines and luxury SUVs. That, and a boatload of money - or at least that's what AML was reportedly seeking, an issue that served as the stumbling block over which the deal reportedly collapsed.
That's not to say the two parties couldn't still reach some sort of a compromise, but short of that, Daimler may opt to either shut down Maybach altogether, find another partner, or take another stab at building new models internally.

Aston Martin signs Letter of Intent for technical partnership with AMG

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

A little over two months ago came reports that Daimler and Aston Martin were in talks, again, about "supply and technical-cooperation agreements." The next step has been taken with Aston Martin announcing that it has signed a Letter of Intent that looks "towards a technical partnership" with Mercedes-AMG GmbH, and the two companies aiming to have definitive agreements done by year's end.
While it will get to use certain electric and electronic components from AMG, the true golden egg for the maker of the Vanquish will be the ability to develop a new line of "bespoke V8 powertrains" that will be fitted to "a new generation of models." In return for opening up the larder, Daimler will get a non-voting stake of up to five percent of Aston Martin.
Nothing else is being said about the tie-up for the moment, but there's a press release below with a few more details.
