SUMMARY
Offered from 28 years ownership, this recent garage find V8 is running and driving - an ideal entry into the wonderful world of Aston Martin ownership.
DESCRIPTION
- Unveiled in August 1973, the Series 3 differed from earlier cars with the arrival of four twin-choke downdraft Weber carburettors which replaced the previous Bosch fuel-injection system
- To accommodate this new arrangement, the bonnet sported a distinctive bulge that continued to the trailing edge and a lip adjacent to the boot replaced extractor louvers behind the rear window.
- Purchased by our vendor in 1997, this Winchester Blue Series 3 was in regular use between here and his villa in Marbella
- The Aston's history file contains receipts for works over the years, old MOTs and an owner's manual
- Unused for some years, it benefited from a brake service in 2024 by Pilgrim Motorsport
- It's currently running and driving, but will need some recommissioning prior to returning to active use
- An honest car, largely original condition and showing just some 50,580 miles from new
