Looks lovely. What's not to like? Better than a DB9 but not quite as good as a DBS of the same year, which is probably why it is where it is money wise. Some would say its a bit of an oddball, but I really like the Virage although for the extra, I'd be tempted to stick out for a DBS Volante.

But hey, it's a beautiful Aston Martin in a nice spec, I doubt your pal will be disappointed. In actual fact, the more I go back to the ad, the more I like it. The wings embroidery in the headrests is always a nice touch.

Please keep us posted.

Can't talk about the specific car, but the Virage is a cracking car to cruise or drive enthusiastically (corners flatly) and it looks beautiful. Good tech in the car, CCMs are fantastic, suspension has multiple modes, the same system that that Ferrari use I believe etc. SatNav is good - got me to Prague and back without missing a beat and traffic updates worked very very well.

Hasn't missed a beat in the 2.5 years I've had mine.

Oh it has a gorgeous V12 and is an Aston Martin. People will love to look and listen to it while you drive it.

I wouldn't think twice to be honest and a good discount to the DB9.2 I would imagine.

Also to add...I know of someone who bought one recently to stick in a garage and not drive and see it appreciate as one of the last NA V12 engines (not sure how long that will take!)

Well I guess they are quite rare, not sure how many they made, but can't have been many, especially in Volante form
