The convertible “Volante” was introduced in June 1978, but featured the Series 4 bonnet a few months before the coupé received the Oscar India update. The Volante Series 1 weighs 70 kg (155 lb) more than the Coupé, due to the necessity of reinforcing the frame. US market cars received much larger bumpers beginning with the 1980 model year, adding weight and somewhat marring the car’s lines. Owners of US-specified cars often modify them to have the slimmer European bumpers. By 1981, the success of the Volante meant that the coupé model was only built on individual demand.
This car was restored esthetically 4 years ago and is just stunning. Mechanically in a very good condition, it starts immediately…and runs very smoothly.
The car was originally delivered to the US but has been put in european specification with a chrome bumper etc…
The car is a car to go and have fun and to enjoy the sun. It has a fantastic color : Aston Martin Cumberley Grey.
The car has always been very well maintained and always slept in a garage, it is ready to find a new owner…
