Aston Martin DB7 2002 (51) - Vantage Coupe 2-Door

0 Previous Owners, This lot will be auctioned via Historics Classic and Sportscar Auctioneers at The Pace of Autumn; Ascot Racecourse sale on Saturday 20th September. Only one owner. Low mileage and great specification. Regarded by many as one of the world's most beautiful cars when released in 1994, the DB7 received many subtle but effective changes over its ten-year life to complement the elegant body design. Originally designed by Ian Callum to be both beautiful and practical and encompass all the unmistakable DB styling cues, it was initially deemed a little underpowered and thus lacking in excitement. The Vantage was the first Aston Martin in 1999 to use the V12 engine and alongside styling changes enabled 420bhp. A more aggressive styling with a bigger front grille, new fog lights, side and indicator lights and imposing 18" wheels complemented the styling refresh. The Vantage interior leather trim was cut and sewn at a special trim shop at Newport Pagnell, where the carpet and wood veneers were also prepared. The Aston Martin DB7 will undoubtedly be a collectable car for years to come and is equally at home in the city or out on the open road.Originally supplied by HWM in Walton-on-Thames on 1st January 2002, this DB7 Vantage presents very well in the delightful colour combination of Litchfield Black with Fawn leather interior. A good list of options was selected by the owner when he purchased the car; over and beyond the cost of unique paint and interior colour the car was ordered with a sports exhaust, Sat Nav, power folding door mirrors and a heated front screen. We are advised by the vendor that the odometer has pixilated digits although the mileage of 27,000 miles is confirmed by the MoT history. Supplied with a V5 registration document and a current MoT test certificate, together with the original service and handbooks. This stunning one owner example has the desirable combination of V12 power and soundtrack, coupled with sumptuous luxury and effortless acceleration. The confidence in this car will certainly capture the imagination of any Aston Martin collector or enthusiast. Consigned by Stewart Banks
