Is the Aston Martin V8 Vantage a good investment?
Manual (2006–2008)
The thesis
Early V8 Vantage with 4.3-litre engine and six-speed manual gearbox. Over 21,000 produced, making it volume model, but manual RHD examples with low mileage scarce. Values bottomed; specialist Nicholas Mee notes 'no depreciation expected' and 'bulletproof' drivetrain. Beautiful interior, British GT character. At £35–55k, offers accessible Aston ownership with preservation potential.
