Aston Martin V8 Vantage Review

Used Value2.5 out of 5

The long waiting lists ensure excellent residual (resale) values. In the early days, lightly-used V8 Vantages could be sold for more than their new price to those wanting to jump the queue. Things will settle down, but there won't be any bargains. Expect prices to ease once the first wave of owners move onto the next must-have fashion accessory, however.
