Condition
8
The car is described by the vendor as being in generally excellent condition. It has had a bare-metal chassis/body refurbishment and conversion of the engine to unleaded compatibility in 2006. The interior leather upholstery, carpets, hood, hood cover, and tonneau were all replaced in 2007. It has been serviced annually at authorized Aston Martin workshops. The only modification made is the installation of electric power assisted steering. The driver's side window was cracked during cleaning prior to the sale, but the vendor will cover the cost of this to be repaired post-sale.
