| V8 Volante |
| Recapturing the spirit of grand touring in the very best of European traditions, the V8 Volante is a supremely elegant motor car - a true symbol of English countryside and the pleasures of open top motoring. The fully lined and powered hood incorporates a heated glass rear window and electric latching to the windscreen. It is a masterpiece of the trimmer's art. The hand built 5.3 litre V8 engine - capable of taking the V8 Volante to over 240 km/h (150 mph) - is perfection in engineering - the hallmark of every Aston Martin. V8 Volante's four speed automatic with electronic sport and touring modes, provides the smooth and responsive transmission of power - always perfectly mannered and effortlessly executed. In terms of quality, V8 Volante exemplifies the art. The interior of V8 Volante is a combination of beauty and excellence that cannot fail to lure the touch. Run your fingertips over the grain of the finest hand-picked Connolly hide, feel the perfect smoothness of the wood finish, the reassuring touch of cold chrome and the deep pile of Wilton carpet. Other senses too are stimulated - the warm aroma of English leather, the visual allure of rich and flawless veneers. All combine to provide a feast of sensory delight.
