1972 Aston Martin AM Vantage, Registration no. PUA 284L Chassis no. AM/6035/RA
Odometer Reading: 67,886
MoT Expiry: TBA
*Long-term ownership
*Fine colour combination
*Manual gearbox
One of Aston Martin's rarer post-war models, only 70 of these six-cylinder Vantages were produced between May 1972 and July 1973. In one family's ownership since the 1980s, our marque restoration specialist vendor says this Vantage is in un-restored condition, bar a bare-metal re-paint in Ascot Grey, which is reported as being undertaken in 1999. The bodywork, trim and paint are said to be very good. The vendor says carpets, dashboard and door cards (blue) are very good, the matching blue seats, headlining and trim are good. He also says the engine ranks as very good when it comes to starting and running, mechanical components and engine bay presentation as good. Running gear (gearbox, clutch, suspension and brakes) and the electrical system are also regarded as good.
An early example of the AM Vantage in a very appealing colour combination, coming from long-term ownership. Trade vendor.
