At the Geneva Motor Show in 1999, Aston Martin introduced the long-awaited Vantage version of their successful DB7. Sporting a Cosworth-designed, 5.9-litre V12 producing a creamy 420bhp, the car was super-quick and was electronically limited to 185mph. The V12 had a serious appetite for air compared to its 6-cylinder predecessor, demanding a larger intake and other modifications to the frontal airflow were made to aid cooling. Other changes included chassis and braking upgrades, to cope with the increased performance and Ian Callum enlarged the grille, added fog lamps and re-styled the valances to give the car a more purposeful look. The Vantage interior leather trim was cut and sewn at a special trim shop at Newport Pagnell, where the carpet and wood veneers were also prepared. The 5.9-litre V12 Vantage Volante, costing over £100,000 at its launch, remained in production until 2004.

Offered here is a DB7 5.9-litre V12 Vantage Volante automatic, supplied new to its first owner on the 11th September 1999 by Grange Aston Martin. This attractive example is finished in a classic combination of Pentland Green Metallic with an Olive Fawn leather interior and a dark green mohair hood. The original service book is stamped over 18 times, predominantly by the supplying dealer, but also by marque specialists. A whole host of work was completed in 2016 by leading Aston Martin authority R.S. Williams which included: four new tyres, fresh fluid and filters, new F.E.A.D belt, new front brake discs, new catalytic converter and sports exhaust fitted, ignition coil, removing and renewing fuel lines, new ABS sensor, re-fitting of the passenger airbag and a new mohair hood. The invoice for this work totalled a substantial £17,255. In July of this year, the car received its annual service at a marque specialist, by which time it had covered around 43,000 miles. Supplied with a UK V5c, desirable ‘V12’ cherished registration, MOT until 5th August 2021, both sets of keys, and its original handbooks and service book, this incredibly well-maintained DB7 Vantage Volante is in fine order. It has covered very few miles since its service, and DB7s of this calibre rarely come to market.

With the prices of its DB predecessors continuing to rise, this well-cared for DB7 surely ticks all the boxes for any serious car collector or marque enthusiast. DB4, 5, 6, and soon the DB7 Vantage. It won't be long!
