EXTERIOR
A thrilling special edition version of the V8 Vantage, this example is finished in Marina Blue Metallic with red accents on the front grille surround, rear diffuser blade, mirror caps and roof pillars. Arguably the prettiest shape of the modern Vantage, this N430 presents splendidly and looks fabulous under any light. Paintwork has been protected by front-end PPF and presents very well, with no major blemishes. Bodywork is near perfect, a testament to its low mileage and careful ownership.
INTERIOR
Perhaps a particular highlight of this example is the interior, boasting the 6-speed manual transmission and Carbon Fibre bucket seats, a rare but sought after option. Vulnerable bolsters do not show any unsightly damage with only the lightest signs of use to report, and all Alcantara surfaces remain free from overuse and greasy marks so often seen!
WHEELS AND TYRES
The Graphite 10-spoke forged alloy wheels all present free from any kerbing or damage, and are shod in matching Bridgestone Potenza’s, all of which show plenty of tread depth remaining.

THE DRIVE & ENGINE
Powered by a ‘Vantage S’ specification 4. 7-litre naturally aspirated V8, producing 430bhp and 361lb-ft of torque, coupled to the desirable six-speed manual gearbox – this N430 ticks a lot of boxes.
Handling provides uncanny stability, plenty of grip and tenacious traction, allowing you to really lean on it along a challenging road. The brakes are strong and progressive, whilst the naturally aspirated 4. 7-litre V8 never sounds less than purposeful. Upon road test, this N430 drives remarkably well, with no faults to report.
This Aston Martin V8 Vantage N430 is a potent limited-edition version of the V8 Vantage, with the ‘S’ specification V8, sports suspension and a quicker hydraulic steering rack. Finished in an eye-catching colour combination and benefitting from a comprehensive, main dealer service history along with manufacturers warranty, it would now make a fantastic addition to any performance-focused collection.
