1997 Aston Martin V8 Coupe - Nicholas Mee & Co Ltd, Aston Martin Specialists

17,400 miles only 2 previous owners Complete AM Service history 1 of only 101 built Supplied with 12 months warranty This outstanding example of the V8 Coupe with just 2 former owners from new, has covered only 17,400 miles. Chassis 79066 has an outstanding service history from Aston Martin Works and Heritage specialists, attesting to the careful ownership of this cherished car. Finished in the elegant colour of Galloway Green and complemented with Magnolia hides piped green with Walnut veneer finishers. One of just 101 examples built and in superb condition in every respect, the V8 Coupe is a true Grand Tourer, a delight to drive and be driven in. First shown at the Geneva Motor Show in 1996 the Aston Martin V8 Coupe, satisfied customer demand for a less complicated and more easily maintained AM, than the Supercharged V8 Vantage of the day. A naturally aspirated 350bhp Aston Martin V8 engine, transmitting power through a 4 speed automatic transmission and the use of the supercharged Vantage chassis architecture, resulted in superbly relaxed GT with a top speed of 155 mph and 0-60 in 5.9 seconds. Just 101 examples were built on the Newport Pagnell production line, over 3 years, before production of the entire V8 range ceased and the Newport Pagnell factory reconfigured for Vanquish production. A Grand Tourer of the old school, with a beautifully finished interior, subtle body styling and sufficient power, the V8 Coupe is a fitting swan song to the end of the 'coach built era', of Aston Martin production. Supplied with our usual highest standards of preparation and available to view in our West London showrooms now.
