The Appeal

The DB7 Volante has never looked more tempting: power folding roof, Ian Callum's flowing lines, a supercharged straight-six under the bonnet, and an interior trimmed by hand at Newport Pagnell, it offered a compelling blend of performance and craftsmanship, remaining one of the most accessible routes into Aston Martin ownership today.

This 1997 example is finished in Metallic Black Emerald, a colour that appears almost black but reveals a deep green hue up close, over a cream and green leather interior. Having covered 47,995 miles from new, it has been in the current owner's care for nearly three years. The vendor describes the body and paintwork as being in very nice condition. Underneath, a recent anti-corrosion treatment by Wren Classics found the structure to be good and solid. The interior presents beautifully, as the photographs attest, and the folding hood is demonstrated in working order.
Well documented and presented with a thorough history file, this DB7 Volante has everything going for it.
