The Aston Martin DB7 was launched in March 1993 at the Geneva Motor Show and marked the return of the six-cylinder Aston Martin. Penned by Ian Callum, the rakish lines of the DB7 were beautiful, hearkening back to iconic models from the sixties. In 1999 Aston Martin squeezed its first production 12-cylinder engine into the DB7 to create the potent DB7 Vantage. The 6.0-litre, 48-valve V-12 powerplant produced 420 bhp with 400 ft-lbs torque and provided blistering performance results with a 0-60 mph sprint in under five seconds. Aston Martin offered the DB7 Vantage in both coupé and Volante (cabriolet) forms with either a six-speed manual gearbox by Tremec or a five-speed automatic from ZF.

This exceptional Vantage Volante has covered just 23,229 kms (14,433 miles). Delivered new via Royal Motors in Monaco, it was first registered in Belgium in January 2003 and remains in showroom condition, complete with the original leather-bound Owners Guide folder containing New Car Warranty, Quick Reference Guide, Traffic Pro Navigation System booklet and spare keys. Even the Aston Martin umbrella is in place in the boot, which also houses the Aston Martin Premium Audio System with six-disc CD changer and battery conditioner in its original A-M box. The car has 2+2 seating, power hood, hood cover, red brake callipers and carbon-fibre dashboard trim. Costing almost £100,000 new, today it is a supercar bargain.
