RHD Aston Martin Vantage 6 cyl (1972) – 1 of 72 – exhibition car at Earl Court Motor Show in 1972
-
Description
This Aston Martin Vantage is 1 of 72 examples of this type built and, according to AML records, was the exhibition vehicle at the 1972 Earls Court Motor Show.
After David Brown had to sell the company, the new owners wanted to make the abbreviation “DB” disappear and instead used the designation “Vantage” for the last vehicles equipped with the 6 cylinder, as the new 8 cylinder was not yet ready. This means that this original gap filler is now a rare collector’s item.
This Vantage has always been properly handled, as evidenced by two folders full of invoices, a complete listing of all service work and photos of a major restoration in 2009.
The car was in England until 2009 and was then imported to Austria by the current owner and part of his collection here. Regular maintenance and TÜV / §57a can also be verified here. Original instruction book available.
The engine and transmission run and shift properly. The other technology and electrics are also in order. The paintwork and interior are in good condition and benefit from professional detailing. Some paint defects are documented by photos. On the doors at the bottom and on the right fender, the paint knife brings out references to spatulas.
The Vantage has Austrian papers and is looking forward to a lover and connoisseur who appreciates the robust sound and exclusivity of this car. Speedometer information in miles.
Private sale, viewing by appointment, live video possible.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage V580 (1985) – only 8,700mls
-
Description
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage was hailed as “Britain’s First Supercar” when introduced due to its 170-mph top speed. Its engine was shared with the Lagonda, but it used high-performance camshafts, increased compression ratio, larger inlet valves and bigger carburettors mounted on new manifolds for increased output. Straight-line performance was the best of the day. When Motor Magazine tested the V8 Vantage V580, an incredible 0 to 60 mph time of 5.2 seconds was recorded, which was quicker than the Ferrari Daytona, its main competitor of the time!
The V580 BBS cars are easily identified by wider wheel arches, increasing the overall width from 183 cm to 189 cm. The rear spoiler became much neater and fully integral, and a smoother and closed bonnet bulge became standard across the range. Indeed, the only external differences between the standard model was the large front air dam, blanked off grille and badges.
First delivered to Aston Martin Kuwait, this car was UK registered in 1989. Contemporary servicing works were carried out by RS Williams Ltd (Factory Heritage Service Centre) in 2015 and further works were undertaken in 2016. In 2018 Aston Engineering completed major works and upgrades to the Vantage costing more than £30,000. An Aston Martin certified factory record accompanies the history file and handbooks.
Without doubt this is an opportunity to acquire the highly desirable Vantage (V580) for far less than the value of an X-pack.
