KEY FACTS This Aston Martin V8 Volante is a muscular open-top grand tourer, boasting the lesser-seen manual gearbox.

It is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.3-litre V8, delivering around 310PS to the rear wheels through a dog-leg five-speed manual transmission.

This V8 Volante was originally delivered to Monaco before later being exported to Italy, where it is now offered for sale.

The odometer indicates 31,325 kilometres, which the seller believes to be the correct distance covered from new, though this cannot be warranted.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES The car is finished in black with a co-ordinating black soft top over a cream leather-trimmed cabin, punctuated by wooden inlays.

It rides on a set of 15-inch wheels, fitted with Goodyear tyres.

Equipment includes an electrically operated soft top, electric windows, and a Blaupunkt Toronto SQR 46 radio-cassette player.

Accompanying the sale is the owner’s handbook and an ASI registration certificate from November 2022.
