November 22, 2017 Rob Fraser Aston Martin, Sports Car Guide Comments Off on Aston Martin Vantage V8 Quick Facts

Aston Martin Vantage Aston Martin President Chief Executive Officer, Dr Andy Palmer said: “It speaks volumes for the outgoing Vantage that it is the single most successful model in Aston Martin’s history.
