Lot 208: 1998 Aston Martin DB7 Volante
Coys Auction, Coys (27th February 2007)
The Aston Martin DB7 was a manufactured from September 1994 to December 2003. This grand tourer was available either as a coupe or a convertible, and debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in March, 1993. The six-cylinder DB7 replaced the lower Aston Martin V8 models, placing below the hand-built V8 Virage introduced a few years earlier. The DB7 was the most successful Aston Martin model ever, with more than 7,000 built before it was replaced by the DB9. The DB7 was styled by Ian Callum, and it is widely considered one of the most beautiful and timeless of automotive designs. The convertible Volante version was unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in 1996. Under the bonnet is a supercharged straight-6 engine that produced 335 bhp. The DB7 Volante is not all about speed. Lower the suede-lined power hood and you have a stunning grand tourer with room in the boot for two sets of golf clubs. Despite losing its roof, there's no scuttle shake in the svelte Volante. Topless or otherwise, the cabin is an oasis of timeless good taste that looks and feels exactly like one expects a £90,000 car to look and feel: expensive, with lashings of real star quality.Finished in metallic red with a beige roof this stunning Volante is described as being in excellent condition. The cream leather interior piped in red is also in excellent order. The vendor has owned the vehicle for the last 5 years and has been maintained to very high standards. The car is supplied with an MoT certificate valid until September of this year and a V5 document. Service books and four previous MoT certificates are also contained in the cars history file.
