1995 Vantage 550 SOLD

We are delighted to offer for sale this rare left hand drive Vantage 550.


Off the road for a number of years undergoing modifications, this particular example does not come with an engine and gearbox. Various gearbox options can be discussed along with a new 7. 3 litre engine.

One of a handful to leave the factory in Rolls Royce White (now Onyx Black) with a magnolia leather interior, it also had the rare and desirable 6-speed manual gearbox.

With a total production of just 239 examples, the Vantage V550 is a rare car and certainly the last, truly coach-built car made by Aston Martin at their Newport Pagnell Works.

Huge performance was on tap courtesy of the hand-built 5. 3 Litre twin supercharged V8 engine which produced a staggering 550BHP and 550ft/ lbs torque, making it the most powerful production car at the time. Despite epic proportions, the Vantage was no slouch, sprinting to 60mph in less than 4. 6 seconds but the awe-inspiring part was its formidable the mid-range performance, the vast twin Eaton superchargers gave an immediate brutal response and if needed, enormous flexibility.

It would make a great project and could easily be exported back to its original country or origin Germany.
