Just stunning! Surely this must be one of the most famous Aston's after James Bond's DB5 because of it's role in the royal wedding last year? Wonder why he is selling it?

[Ice27]

He is not.
That's the same model, not the same car.
Read it again George!

A stunning car though!
(I think that's twice I've agreed with George now!)

[Mr Overheads]

It's not the Actual car driven in the wedding it's just the same model. Admittedly with only 38 produced still pretty exclusive.

Lovely car!

I think Mummy bought the car for Charles .........

Ah, that will teach me for skim reading stuff! I was on my iPhone

Initially got me thinking of a "collective" purchase, but sadly not now..

Just lovely!

How much do we think?

[Token Jock]

Hmm lovely

Too many miles for you though George

[Lunablack]

80k miles.

Personaly I wouldn't look at any car with that kind of mileage........it'll be completely worn out by now...

I actually said cars like this where you don't really have a choice wouldn't bother me. I'd want it to be as low as possible but it wouldn't really get driven. I'd have other Aston's for that.

But since I can't afford it it's irrelevant

[Jockman]

Georgeous do you really reckon Prince Charles is a PHer ???? Do you really think it would be sold through this channel ???

I wonder what his pseudonym would be

It's being sold through a dealer who advertises on here. Please put the vino down

But why would you think that HRH would sell through a Dealer???

Do you think he is pals with a bloke at Stratstone ??

That car will never come to market IMHO for a similar reason as to why you will not see a one-77 for sale on this site

Well I would expect it to be through Aston Martin but no reason why he wouldn't sell it through a specialist. I'm sure he has someone to take care of such stuff, I did find it a bit odd that he would sell a car he has had since 21 years old though.

Btw, I reckon if a One-77 came up for sale in the UK it would be advertised on here. Look at the amount of rivals that are advertised on here - Bugattis, Paganis, Koenigsegg etc etc. Or you could just look on JamesList, a couple on there I think

I skim read it! (obviously not very well )

[Jockman]

I was always under the impression that the 'super rich' would have their own sales conduit - a la Bonhams private sales etc.

Didn't realise they would be looking to interact with the PH Massive
