Finding older VH platform Vantages which are or can be prepped to our standards is increasingly rare.

This example is a showstopper. Even the roof mechanism looked unused.

As ever….similar examples required

Apologies for the delay publishing Part 4 – it’s been rather sporty this end during our busiest period of the year.

We’re back from the ring and the was phenomenal - our tweaks ended up being minimal – Nitron’s suggested setup was nigh on bang-on in our humble opinion.

We stiffened the low-speed compression slightly to sharpen the car’s response to driver inputs, and reduced the high-speed compression (kerbs, potholes etc.) for better traction and compliance when Adam waltzed across the kerbs.

We’re well aware the Acceleras are mid-range tyres and the Yellowstuff pads are on the first rung of brake upgrades (as stressed in the previous video…).

Yokohama A052s have since been fitted. We’re now trying to decide between Endless MX72 Plus, CC-Rg or Pagid RSL29s.

Most have said go with the well-known Pagids, but with this being a car for both south of France and pub trips and the track, we’re wary of the ghastly brake squeal… quite unbecoming when turning up.

As ever, thoughts welcome!

A big shout out to for kindly guiding us through the Nordschleife. Alistair is one of the industries truly good guys and along with he’s a fountain of knowledge re preparing Astons to race and fast road use. If you’re are heading to the ring do look him up!

Saturdays service collections including the guv’nor heading home.

Blue and green should never be seen, unless it’s Astons and the weather’s a dream

Lovely weekend all

Some cars have ‘it’ - and this is one of those. An inarguably beautiful shape married with tasteful and effective performance enhancements.

If you want a timeless DB4 capable of embarrassing the modern bumph, this is it.

What a car!

Saying goodbye to a beautiful DB4 series five Vantage we fully restored, and hello to a series 2 finished in Chiltern Green.

The wonderful example has benefited from some significant upgrades which include; triple webbers, a 5 speed Getrag gearbox (the original DB 4 speed unit accompanied the car) and coilover suspension all round.

The car presents and drives beautifully and is sensibly priced at £325,000 with only 23,000 miles indicated.

From full restorations and crash repair to paint correction, detailing and ceramic coating we can make your Heritage or New Era Aston Martin like new.
