Returning to Opposite Stock for the third time, we're pleased to welcome back a car we know exceptionally well – this outstanding 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage. A model that continues to impress with its elegant proportions and distinctive character, the V8 Vantage remains one of the most iconic and desirable sports cars of its generation.

Introduced in 2005 as the more compact, performance-focused sibling to the DB9, the V8 Vantage won immediate acclaim for its timeless design and balanced dynamics. Nearly two decades on, its appeal shows no signs of fading.

This particular example is especially well presented. It features the rare and desirable factory Power Upgrade Pack – a £5,000 option when new – which lifts output to 400 bhp and adds a sharper edge to the car’s performance. Finished in deep Onyx Black with Obsidian leather and alloy interior trim, the car has clearly been cherished, with the paintwork in superb condition and free from the usual wear one might expect. It’s a colour combination that perfectly reflects the car’s understated sophistication.

Aside from the Power Upgrade Pack, what truly sets this V8 Vantage apart is its impeccable maintenance history. The car has been serviced 18 times by official Aston Martin main dealers, making it one of the most comprehensively documented examples on the market today. Each entry reflects careful, considered ownership – a rarity in a world where such detail is increasingly hard to find.

Under the bonnet sits Aston Martin’s 4.3-litre naturally aspirated V8 – a wonderfully characterful engine with a rich soundtrack and linear power delivery. Paired with a slick 6-speed manual transmission, it offers an engaging and rewarding driving experience. A new set of Continental Sport Contact 7 tyres has recently been fitted, ensuring confident road holding and excellent composure in all conditions.

In our view, this car offers exceptional value at this level. The blend of timeless design, detailed provenance and genuine driving pleasure is difficult to replicate at this price point. Supplied with a 3-month warranty and a cherished private registration, this V8 Vantage is ready to be enjoyed immediately by its next enthusiast owner.

Specification includes the following – 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage, 6-speed manual, 57,000 miles, Onyx Black, Obsidian Leather, factory Power Upgrade Pack, alloy interior trim, 3 keys, 3-month warranty, cherished registration included.

The most recent service was completed on 2nd October 2023 at 55,299 miles by Aston Martin Newcastle. The next MOT is due on 17th October 2025.

Viewing is strongly encouraged, and any inspection is welcome. Located at our Berwick-upon-Tweed showroom, this V8 Vantage is available for immediate delivery.
