Lot details

Year: 1980
Make: Aston Martin
Model: V8 Volante
Chassis No: V8COR/15151
Odometer: 77,852

Regarded by many as the definitive luxury convertible of its era, the Aston Martin V8 Volante combined effortless performance with handcrafted refinement in a way few contemporaries could rival. Elegant yet imposing, the Volante offered the full grand touring experience: muscular V8 power, superb long-distance comfort and the unmistakable presence that became synonymous with Aston Martin throughout the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Introduced in 1978 following strong customer demand for an open version of the acclaimed V8 saloon, the Volante quickly established itself as one of the world's most desirable convertibles. Featuring a fully lined and electrically operated hood, the car retained the sense of solidity and craftsmanship expected of Aston Martin, while the richly appointed interior, complete with extensive walnut veneers and Connolly leather, provided an atmosphere of understated luxury. Performance remained suitably impressive, with the 5.3-litre V8 delivering effortless high-speed touring capability and refinement in equal measure. Production was limited, with fewer than 850 examples believed to have been built.

First registered on 1st January 1980, this particular example, chassis number 15151, is understood to have passed into long-term ownership during the mid-1980s, remaining with one custodian for some 28 years. During this period the car benefited from consistent maintenance and servicing by recognised Aston Martin specialists, supported by a substantial history file and a near-continuous sequence of MoT certificates confirming the recorded mileage.

Finished in dark metallic blue with blue-piped magnolia leather upholstery, the Volante presents as a well-cared-for and highly usable example. The most recent MoT was issued in August 2023 at 77,816 miles, with the odometer now displaying 77,848 miles. Offered from careful ownership, this elegant Aston Martin represents a fine opportunity to acquire one of Newport Pagnell's most charismatic open-top grand tourers. Consigned by Stewart Banks.
