2002 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Volante

Remarks

Cosmetically the car is in Chiltern Green, a beautiful dark metallic hue, surely one of the best db7 colours. The paintwork was refreshed a couple of years ago, the wheels refurbished and the tyres are premium and carry hardly any miles. In addition the car has a recent new roof from specialists BAS, again all invoices are in the file. The car is at present looked after and stored by a marque expert, and is good underneath. The car is offered with a new MOT until May 2026.

Remarks

The headlining does need a small repair on the rear passenger side pillar, and the carpets are not perfect but these are minor cosmetics, all the big expenses have been done.

Remarks

I had the top end of the engine comprehensively rebuilt, including skimming of the heads, new gaskets replacement of tappets, plugs, coils, manifolds, water pumps, cam covers using all OEM parts, all evidenced by the invoices in the file, so the top end of the engine and much more is as new.

Remarks

The gearbox was then replaced with a recon item from a 25k mile car.

Remarks

The suspension has been refreshed, and the propshaft balanced.

Remarks

Even the starter button electrics and handbrake light switches have been replaced. There are 2 keys with the car, one having a very recent new remote. Invoices confirm. There is pixellation on the trip meter near the odometer.

Remarks

This is a 2002 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage volante which has only had 2 owners in the last 15 years. I have added just over 2000 miles since I purchased it in june 2018, since when it has been kept indoors when not in use. It has not been used in the wet. There are 13 main dealer or specialist stamps in the service book, the last a couple of hundred miles ago at a Aston Martin Specialist, who not only serviced the car but carried out extensive remedial work on the electrics, the engine and the suspension. The comprehensive invoice is in the vehicle file. Prior to this the present owner has had the top end of the engine comprehensively rebuilt, including skimming of the heads, new gaskets replacement of tappets, plugs, coils, manifolds, water pumps, cam covers using all OEM parts, all evidenced by the invoices in the file, so the top end of the engine and much more is as new. The gearbox was then replaced with a recon item from a 25k mile car, the suspension refreshed, and the propshaft balanced. Even the starter button electrics and handbrake light switches have been replaced. There are 2 keys with the car, one having a very recent new remote. Invoices confirm.

The car is at present looked after and stored by a marque expert, and is offered with a new MOT until May 2026. Thousands have been spent on this lovely example and a recent drive confirms it drives really tightly with on point acceleration, direct steering and smooth braking, with none of the clunks, drifts or rattles you get with poorly maintained examples. I have downsized to what has turned out to be a major building project with as yet no garage, and being in storage some miles away, is not being used as it should. Hence the sale.
