What to look for
There's not much to go wrong here since the Vantage is still a relatively young model. History is important - who was the original owner and why is it up for sale - and as much as we don't want to admit it, Aston's build quality can occasionally be iffy so check paint quality especially.

Used Prices
There's more appearing on the used market now that the speculators have sold theirs on. Six-month-old examples can be found from as little as £75,000 now. A great saving when a good spec example cost around £90,000 new.
