Discover one of the most remarkable Aston Martin V8 Vantages ever built. Originally a factory demonstrator and development car, this exceptional example achieved over 175 mph during a high-speed test driven by Phil Hill in 1984, making it the fastest period-recorded V8 Vantage.
Featuring a specially developed 437 bhp V8 engine, five-speed ZF manual gearbox, distinctive closed grille and original BBS wheels, it helped pave the way for the legendary 580X X-Pack models.
Finished in timeless British Racing Green with tan leather upholstery, this rare Aston Martin combines motorsport heritage, engineering excellence and quintessential British grand touring elegance.
