DESCRIPTION
Introduced at the Birmingham Motor Show in 1988, the Virage was Aston Martin's replacement for the decades-old V8 models. It was joined by the high-performance Vantage in 1993, and the name of the standard car was changed to V8 Coupé in 1996. This V8 powered car was intended as the company's top model, with the 6-cylinder, DB7 of 1994 slotted in below it. Although the DB7 later switched to a V12 engine and claimed the performance crown, this V8 model remained the exclusive, expensive, and hand-built top of the range until it was replaced in 2000 with the Vanquish.
This second ""barn find"" Aston has been with the current vendor for five years, having bought it as a project. The car has been dry stored for a period and will obviously require a degree of re-commissioning. Fitted with the rare manual gearbox, the Aston was in running order when it went into hibernation. With its fairly comprehensive history file, this 34,000 mile Virage will make a very smart car indeed when finished.
*The vendor informs us that the car was ""laid up"" due to a faulty immobiliser*
