The Virage is one of only 365 made between 1989 and 1995 which had an initial price tag of £135,000.
This Virage however has vented front wings which cost an extra £12,000 on top of the list price.

The number of Virage available with the Factory-Fitted vented wings are suppose to number very few indeed. Exact numbers are not possible, but indication is maybe 1/2 a dozen or so. To have Aston Martin Heritage Works fit this option on now, would cost approx £25,000 or more! An unfeasible expense, which makes this car rarer than most other Virage Coupe variants.
Once the RHD & LHD figures are taken from the 365 actually made in Total, then the car starts becoming even rarer in their UK & European Markets. The Average retail price in Europe for LHD is approx £53,000 for a "normal" Virage Coupe & less than 1/2 that figure in UK. Out of approx 20 Virage Coupe Models for Sale in USA, UK & Europe at the moment; not a single other car has the double-vented Wings.
So from costing £147,000 in the early 1990s, and with a rare factory installed option, our Virage is a bit more special than most of the other models. Please make serious & sensible offers considering that we are offering 85% & 100% Guaranteed Buyback on this vehicle & can also offer a 1-3 yr Warranty if required.
Any P/ex whether of a larger or lesser value, will be considered & Finance can also be arranged (sub. to status). This in our opinion is another "sure-fire" Investment Classic Car that will bring great "Joy of Motoring", to its new owner, coupled with superb long term investment potential. Our personal view prediction of retail value, [PRV], is approx £50,000+ in 10 years or more! Year 2019++. (Loosely based upon past precedence for certain Collector Car price throughs & exponential rises!)
Please remember this Model Range was the last truly Hand-built Factory Aston Martin, that ended a long tradition of the way Astons were built. From the DB7 Model onwards, all the cars were produced just like normal mass produced cars. The Virage Bodyshell is all Aluminium, that has been formed by individuals hand-beating each panel; making these some of the costliest & rarest Production cars in the history of Automobiles.
Condition wise, is very good indeed with the interior unmarked, although there has been some dampness in the boot which has slightly worn the boot carpet (an easy and uncostly fix by a trim repairer).
Outside is as good as it looks in the photographs with just a small blemish on the front wing (size of a pea).
As a Special Offer to any regular AMOC Members who may be interested; Non-Status Loan available with 50% Deposit! (STC).
