Category: Convertibles 2 out of 5

Summary of the Aston Martin V series (1996-2001)

Price Range: No data available

Assets

Vantage's amazing performance and sound. Traditional British interior furniture.

Drawbacks

Rather cumbersome to drive. Colossal costs.

Verdict

Appealing, but a bit of an oddity.

Review

Comfort and Equipment2 out of 5

The V-Series models aren't the most desirable Astons, so don't sell on at the highest values. The Volante, ugly though it is, is more desirable than the coupes, at least. With greater numbers of more modern Astons around to choose from, and without the appeal of the older 'classic' models, these are rather unloved - so make a (relatively) cheap way into Aston ownership, perhaps.
