Hi All
I recently bought a beautiful 2007 V8 Vantage, with an aftermarket Bluetooth system installed years ago (I think it's a Parrot).
I want to replace the Bluetooth with a more modern system that will also allow music streaming.
The installers need to know what audio system is in the car. There are no details in the Owner's Manual or on the internet.
Can someone perhaps help, would be most grateful, the car would broaden my smile even further smile
Any info or pointers welcome!

If the audios fitted in 2007 were the same as in model year 2009, then this should be your answer.

When the audio is switched on, does the screen display 'Premium Audio'? If yes, then you have a 700 watt Alpine system.
That was an option when the car was new, the standard radio being 160 watt (possibly also Alpine).

Aston Martin can provide an update kit for the Bluetooth but I think on your model car it is a 4 figure price...
