Description
Wonderful two owner V12 Vantage DB7 Coupe with 6-spd manual 'box
in sole ownership since 2003 showing just 26,096 miles with excellent
maintenance record
Supplied new by Autohaus
Kronberg GmbH of Frankfurt in September 2000, this handsome RHD Aston Martin DB7
Vantage Coupe is finished in Jaguar Dark Blue and sits on its original 18”
10-spoke alloy wheels.
Under the bonnet, we
find the 5.9 litre 48-valve AMV12 engine which develops 422Bhp and 542Nm of
torque which drives the rear wheels here via the optional, and highly desirable
six-speed Tremec T-56 manual gearbox which gives a claimed top speed of 186mph –
mighty figures indeed.
Inside, we find a
two-tone cabin in Pacific Blue and Ivory combined with traditional walnut trim
which works beautifully with the dark blue exterior. The spec includes cruise control,
traction control, AC, electric mirrors, electric windows, electric seats with
lumbar adjustment, starter button and radio/cassette/CD
player.
This fine example shows just 26,095
miles which have been covered predominantly by our vendor who has owned the car
since May 2003, covering many of the miles on European road
trips.
The history file includes the V5C
showing just one former owner, the owner’s pack with service section recording
nine stamps inc. PDI, the last in October 2018 at 24,199 miles by Aston Martin,
Hampton In Arden. There are also some nine recall/Campaigns recorded between
2001 and 2003.
The file also includes the
current MOT valid until August 2024 with no advisories and a couple of
recent bills by Aston Martin Works dated June 2020 which totalled an
eye-watering £12,375 for replacement fuel pumps, catalytic converter assembly,
clutch inertia switch and other works at 24,764 miles plus a couple of others
for a service by Aston Martin Birmingham in September 2018 costing £2,477 at
24,199 miles and replacement idle control valve and various gaskets in October
2018.
The vendor tells us the airbag light
seems to have a mind of its own and comes on and goes off intermittently, and
has done for several years.
A very pretty car
that’s had a fortune spent on it by our vendor, it is on offer at an
attractive guide price given the low ownership
and mileage.
