Aston Martin’s V8 Vantage has been offering the performance and handling to make it the envy of driving aficionados while being one of the cheapest options to enter the Aston Martin family and own one of these striking cars that are forever associated with the James Bond franchise ever since an Aston Martin first graced the super spy’s silver screen outing way back in 1964. The Vantage nameplate was originally applied to high-performance Aston Martin models, and the current Vantage is the most lean and agile car in Aston's portfolio. Starting with unveiling the Vantage concept car in 2003, Aston Martin officially introduced the V8 Vantage in 2005 and continued its variants until 2017. Up for sale is this striking example, a 2008 Aston Martin V8 Vantage N400 Special Edition 1 of 240 built with 24000 miles on the dash.
Exterior and Interior
This Aston Martin V8 Vantage N400 is a special edition version that features a number of technical upgrades as well as cosmetic enhancements over the Aston Martin V8 Vantage’s standard selection of color and trim options. The interior enhancements also features a wonderful micro-spin alloy facia while the Obsidian Black leather trim incorporates new perforated seat inserts complimenting the Lighting Silver Metallic paint job. Additionally, each Aston Martin V8 Vantage N400 features a unique Limited Edition sill plaque, this one designates No. 211 of 240 ever built.
Engine
The heartbeat of the car is a more powerful version of Aston Martins 4.3L V8 Vantage engine raising the power figures to 400HP from 380HP. While it might look like a tamed Aston Martin on the surface, the "N400" was a beast under all that luxury facade. This 2008 Aston Martin V8 Vantage N400 might sport a 4.3L V8 present in the Vantage, but the moment one gets their foot on the throttle, things are a bit different. You are mistaken if you thought all this was the cherry on top of the cake. This luxury British sports car sends all this power to its rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission, giving you more control of the car and getting a better feel of its power.
Blending hand-built British craftsmanship with analog V8 character, this 2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster delivers one of the most emotionally engaging open-top grand touring experiences of its era. Showing just 18,423 miles, this exceptionally well-kept example is finished in elegant Glacial Blue over an All Obsidian Black interior, pairing timeless Aston Martin styling with a highly desirable factory specification and extensive documented maintenance. Powered by Aston Martin’s sonorous 4.3L naturally aspirated V8 and paired with the brand’s Sportshift automated manual transmission, this V8 Vantage offers a distinctly analog driving experience wrapped in unmistakably exotic design. With approximately $28,000 in documented receipts since purchase, this example reflects meaningful enthusiast ownership and careful mechanical stewardship.
Vantage has traditionally been used to represent the most potent variant of an Aston Martin. In 2005, all that changed when Aston Martin spun off the term Vantage into a separate model. Intended to be their most agile model, this 2008 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster is a fine way to check out that claim. This car features a Midnight Blue exterior, a Sahara Tan interior, and a 4.3-liter naturally aspirated V8 under the hood. It’s got a One of One certification by the Aston Martin Heritage Trust and comes with a 6-speed Sportshift automated manual transmission.
Vantage has been a tag that Aston Martin used to use to denote the higher-performance variants of their existing cars, such as the DB7. But in 2005, that changed when this prolific British sports car maker decided to make a model called the Vantage. That’s what we have here, a first-generation Aston Martin Vantage V8 for sale from Poquoson, Virginia. The car has got a manual gearbox, a Caspian Blue interior and only over 41,000 miles to its name. If you’d like to experience one of the finest British grand tourers from the mid to late 2000s, as well as channel a little bit of James Bond suaveness, this reportedly all-stock car is ideal.
The Aston Martin DB7 is widely regarded as the car that helped revitalize Aston Martin during the 1990s and early 2000s, blending timeless British styling with refined grand touring performance. This 2003 Aston Martin DB7 V12 Vantage Coupe represents one of the most desirable iterations of the model, powered by a naturally aspirated V12 and finished in elegant Antrim Blue over an Atlantic Blue and Parchment leather interior. Showing just 11,528 miles, this exceptionally low-mileage example has been driven sparingly and carefully preserved. With its hand-built craftsmanship, luxurious cabin appointments, and effortless V12 performance, this DB7 offers collectors and enthusiasts the opportunity to own a modern Aston Martin that embodies the brand’s classic grand touring philosophy.
The 2013 Aston Martin DB9 represented a major evolution of Aston Martin’s iconic grand tourer, bringing meaningful chassis, styling, and performance improvements while preserving the timeless elegance that made the DB9 such a design benchmark. Showing approximately 39,149 miles, this example is finished in sophisticated Skyfall Silver over an Obsidian Black cabin, a combination that perfectly complements the car’s understated yet unmistakably exotic character. Powered by Aston Martin’s glorious naturally aspirated 5.9L V12, the DB9 delivers the kind of smooth, effortless performance that defined the traditional grand touring experience before downsizing and turbocharging became the norm. For buyers seeking one of the last truly classic Aston Martin V12 grand tourers, this DB9 remains an exceptionally compelling proposition.
The Aston Martin V12 Vanquish is one of the most iconic grand touring cars of the early 2000s, blending hand-built British craftsmanship with exotic V12 performance in a package that remains deeply desirable today. Famously recognized as James Bond’s car in Die Another Day, the Vanquish represented Aston Martin’s technological flagship at launch, introducing a bonded aluminum chassis, advanced paddle-shift transmission, and unmistakably muscular Ian Callum styling. This 2002 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish shows approximately 23,513 miles and presents in timeless Tungsten Silver over Charcoal, a quintessential Aston Martin color combination. With its naturally aspirated V12, elegant interior appointments, and increasingly collectible status, this Vanquish offers a compelling opportunity to own one of Aston Martin’s most memorable modern-era halo cars.
