1994 Aston Martin Virage Volante For Sale edit C121973 | | | http://www.hofmanns.co.uk/carsales/detail.asp?VID=102 | | The replacement car for the V8 had a very difficult task in bringing Aston Martin into the 90's. And the car chosen to do this became the Virage. The four-seater GT was unveiled in 1988 at the Birmingham Motor Show to almost universal acclaim. Despite the huge £135,000 price tag, the order book soon filled up as customers had waited so long for a totally new Aston Martin. The revised V8 engine, developed together with Reeves Callaway, still retained the familiar 5340cc capacity but now had 4 valves per cylinder and Weber electronic fuel injection. Soon after the coupe was in full production it was joined by the convertible Volante version, initially shown with just two seats it was soon developed to carry four people in comfort. Finally, the mighty Vantage was unveiled in the autumn of 1992; almost all of the panels were changed to create the most muscular Aston ever. The V8 was developed to produce an almost unbelievable 550 bhp assisted by twin Eaton superchargers.
This exceptional example is finished in lighting silver with black Connolly leather, piped in grey and black mohair roof. This ex factory demonstrator, registered to Mr Walter Hayes, had the factory AM V8 registration number then the famous AML1 was fitted. There is a full Aston Martin service history with the car which shows the speedo replaced at 16054 miles, currently car has only 30000 miles displayed and drives like a new car.
