2001 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Coupé
Registration no. V12 AMU
Chassis no. SCFAB1237IK301878
Engine no. AM2/01910

Introduced in March 1999, the DB7 Vantage was an exciting new model powered by a state-of-the-art, all-alloy V12 engine - a 'first' for a production Aston Martin. This 6.0-litre, quad-cam, 48-valve unit produced 420bhp and 400lb/ft of torque while meeting all current and projected emissions regulations. There was a choice of two alternative transmissions: a new six-speed manual or ZF Touchtronic five-speed automatic with manually selectable ratios. A top speed of 185mph was claimed for the Vantage coupé.

The existing six-cylinder DB7 bodyshell was re-engineered to accommodate the new V12 engine/transmission package, resulting in a stiffer structure exceeding all contemporary crash test requirements, while the suspension was developed specifically for this new model. The 15" diameter wheels too were unique to the Vantage, which also featured cross-drilled and ventilated Brembo brakes equipped with ABS. Notwithstanding all the DB7 Vantage's high-tech attributes, its makers had not lost sight of customer expectations of what constituted an Aston Martin. Thus the Vantage's hand crafted interior featured traditional Connolly hide upholstery and could be trimmed and equipped to individual customer requirements. All the usual luxury fittings came as standard, while clients could choose from an extensive list of options.

A Touchtronic transmission model, this DB7 vantage was delivered new to a Michael Stone via Lancaster Sevenoaks on 6th June 2001, finished in Aston Racing Green with Forest/Parchment trim.

Serviced regularly by Lancaster (x5), Works Service, and Chiltern Aston (x7), the car was purchased direct from a private seller following an inspection by Chiltern Aston. While in the current (fourth) owner's possession the Aston has been serviced by Stratton Motor Company Ltd on five occasions, the most recent being in April 2022 at 45,496 miles (see bill for £2,600 on file). Described by the vendor as in 'excellent condition and meticulously maintained' it's offered with many service invoices and also comes with the leather wallet, all books and the appropriate V12 registration number.
