Aston Martin V8 Coupé
Specifications
The story behind this collectible...
- There is rare and there is unique. Something the V8 Coupé both possesses.
Aston Martin. A brand that is equivalent to large country houses, long driveways with neatly trimmed boxwood balls and cigar-smoking gentlemen who like to arrive somewhere extravagantly but modestly. It's called lavishing in style, Charles! With the Virage, Aston seemed to have lost its largest target group for a while. Fortunately, the V8 coupé arrived, which like a hunting horn made everyone return to the showroom. Of course, everyone is relative; there are not that many lords with taste. In the end, they built 101.
The V8 coupé skipped the anabolic treatment and focused on atmospheric luxury horses. They managed to squeeze 355 Thoroughbreds out of the 5.3 liter, which made the narrower body appear at the end of your driveway in 5.9 seconds. Top speed? You can tell the bar that your Aston easily does 250 in fourth gear. Of course, you keep the fact that the automatic transmission only has 4 gears to yourself.
And now we hear the critics thinking; a steering wheel from a Mustang, the door handles from a Ford Mondeo and the mirrors from a Citroen CX, that's not possible? We think so. Better stolen well than badly invented; In all cases, the part seems more at home on this car than from which it was borrowed.
Ours? As you are used to by now. British Racing Green with a beige interior. The beige Connolly cows are separated by dark green piping and dark walnut. She originally comes from France and has been naturalized with us for a while; since then in maintenance at Kroymans. She is ready for her next gentleman to lavish in style; See you soon?
