Wow. I really like how the owner has made it look just like a GT12 by using black strips on the bonnet to outsmart all but the most learned Aston fanatics, genius.

At least its not 'boring' black, grey or white, or was it, is it sometimes? laugh

And thankfully it is 172 miles from where I live and by the looks of those oversized hubs it wont get anywhere near me, or anywhere else that requires negotiating a corner for that matter.

When it was white I didn't hate it quite as much. paperbag
The text makes my eyes itch nearly as much as the photos, they nearly all appear to be of it being 'papped' by the 'insta crowd'.
Monumentally optimistic price.

Jesus H Christ.......what a stbox

Aside from it being awful, where on earth did the seller get a figure of 68 grand from for a 2008 V8 Roadster with 40k on. You can get a nice original one, same age and miles for just over half that on Autotrader.

Good luck with that one............

It's an abomination.

Numberplate DON 1M, if anyone cares. Strangely, there's aren't many brown wrapped Vantages in London so I'm not sure why our optimistic seller decided to scrub out the plate. He doesn't seem to be the shy and retiring type.

At least it will definitely end the discussions on "should I put a rear wing on my car or not?" laugh

Bleach to wash my eyes please...

Daphne and Celeste had this one right... U.G.L.Y

It's a dubiously impressive skill to be able to make one of the most beautiful cars ever built look quite so ugly...

I love it. The mods have been very tastefully applied in keeping with the ethos of the original design. The car has obviously been created with the travelling executive in mind, with the provision of an ironing board on the boot. Very thoughtful addition.

I think it will sell quickly.






Damn, this wine is good!

Looks no worse than some of the AMR/GT8 cars.

Car is a stunner, attracts attention more than a Lambo & Ferrari and many more.
I'm pretty sure an MX-5 with a massive d**k on the roof would attract attention as well. Sometimes when people are pointing and taking photos it's not because they like what they see.

autotrader said:
Absolutely only one car in the uk with this highly modified body kit.
I'm sure that's true. Nobody else would do this to an Aston Martin. Perhaps the owner should ask himself why that is.

Rear spoiler is innovative and something other manufacturers can learn from.

Most have one that raises with speed......note how this one not only raises but also grows as well rofl
