Why an Aston Martin V8 Vantage sounds like the answer to every problem - Classic Cars for Sale
The following video may not be a treat for the eyes – I’ll admit that straight off the bat. That may seem strange, as the Aston Martin V8 Vantage is bite-the-back-of-your-hand beautiful in a forcefully brutal way. Nor is it a video that really shows off the blunt force trauma of its sub-six second 0-60mph time and its thunderous 170mph top speed. And neither do you get to see the beating heart of the operation, the powerhouse X-Pack-equipped V8 that produces in advance of 410bhp and 395b ft of torque thanks to Cosworth pistons, enlarged inlet ports, four 48mm Weber carbs and a smattering... We also won’t be able to tell you if it's had the extra tasty Aston Works Service conversion, which provided a big bore exhaust, 50mm carbs, straight-through exhausts and 430bhp. What this video provides is an absolute treat for the ears as Bruntingthorpe reverberates to one of the most soulful, heart-yearning and addictive V8 roars the world has ever heard.
