The 1980 Aston Martin V8 Volante presented here, featuring a factory 5-speed manual transmission, is a rare US-market Series 4 model. The car’s history does have some gaps, but the details we do have give it an impressive backstory. It was originally sold in Midland, Texas before being purchased by the producer of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom in California. The current owner bought it in Bellevue, Washington, back in 2005. At the time, the Volante was in original condition with around 37,000 miles. For the past 19 years, they’ve maintained it well at a shop in Reisterstown, Maryland.
In 2010-2011, the engine and drivetrain underwent a $30,000 rebuild and upgrade, including Euro-spec components. Then in 2019, the car received a full restoration in Italy - a bare metal repaint in the original Jubilee Silver, new upholstery, top, and more.
With just over 61,500 miles, this freshly restored Volante is one of the only 192 ever made. The rebuilt powertrain and luxurious interior mean the next owner can fully enjoy the thrill of open-top V8 motoring just as Aston intended in the ‘80s. Along with the car, they’ll get the original toolkit, extra keys, and full service records.
