About the V8 Vantage Volante X-Pack

Fitted with a PoW Volante specification centre console, switch panel and locking centre armrest, this exceptionally well cared for example of the rare Aston Martin V8 Vantage Volante, left the production line in June 1989 before being delivered to Monaco, from where it was purchased new and immediately returned to the factory for a complete factory conversion to Right Hand Drive, prior to delivery to its first owner, a UK based property developer and car collector.

About this example

Known to us for the last 6 years after the last owners acquisition, this attractive example has received a comprehensive programme of substantial restorative works, including to the chassis, vehicle running gear, a complete retrim in finest Connolly hides, new Wilton carpeting and a new tailored hood in Boyriven mohair type woven fabric. The varied works being carried out in our Heritage workshops, for the discerning and private collector car owner.

Supplied when new to Mr Ash Tanden, a well-known London based collector in period, this car spent its early years in Mr Tanden’s expansive car collection, before being sold in 1991 along with a number of other collector cars. Purchased by the Sytner Motor Group, the car was subsequently supplied via themselves, on two occasions, including to another well-known collector, Mr Michael Oliver of Cheshire. Maintained by Aston Martin Works in Newport Pagnell and local Aston Martin agents Donaldson & Evans Ltd of Hale, Cheshire, for Mr Oliver, before a long-term owner subsequently purchased the car in 1996, when the car had covered just over 3,000 miles.

Purchased by the last owner in 2020 with 40,000 miles covered by that long term, 1996-2020 owner, the extensive works, completed over the last 6 years by ourselves, to manufacturer standards, with all works recorded within the comprehensive history file of this car.
