Year: 2014 Make: Aston Martin Model: V8 Vantage S Price: $88000 Mileage: 26582 Color: Two Tone Silver Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing Location (State): CA Transmission: Manual Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive Hello everyone. The used car market has just been too much of a temptation, and the new McLaren Artura is calling my name. Up for sale is a very special car- Centenary 23. It's one of 3 known manual's made from the 2013/2014 run of Aston Martin's 100 year celebration vehicles. You can read up about them here: https://astonmartins.com/car/v8-vantage-centenary-edition/ 23 is likely to be the only V8 Vantage S manual in existence (the other two being a coupe non-S and convertible). Since purchasing it, the car has only been washed and maintained by AM San Diego, and is ready for it's next journey. Stamped maintenance book proof can be sent upon request, as well as all vehicle related documentation. Engine DOHC V8, 4735 cc Power 430 bhp @ 7000 rpm Torque 361 ft-lbs @ 5750 rpm 6 Speed Manual Transmission Bang Olufsen Sound system GT4-style muffler delete (original muffler included with sale) Ceramic Window Tint Custom Racing Kit SunTek PPF (covers front splitter, bumper, hood, front fenders, side strakes, mirrors and rocker panels). Geyon MOHS Coating Treatment on the entire car (Myko Designs down in So Cal) Geyon Rim Coating on the rims. Aston Martin indoor car cover included. Custom leather and rubber stitch Vantage S floor mats included. The Centenary cars were very limited and finished to an exacting specification. One of the most striking features is the use of a unique 'gradiated' 2-tone paint scheme of Skyfall Silver with Meteorite Silver contrast on the bonnet of the car. This unique paint scheme is achieved by a meticulous process that adds an additional 18 man hours to the painting of the car. All Centenary editions also received bespoke sterling silver AM wings badges that were a new design featuring additional rays within the wings visible through the transparent enamel. Individually numbered sill plaques of sterling silver with an Aston Martin hallmark are also fitted. The V8 Vantage Centenary Edition was never formally unveiled and has become one of the rarest production cars of the Gaydon era. A total of only 19 V8 Vantage Centenary Edition cars were ever built, and only 7 of those with the 'S' spec. Of those 19 cars, only 3 were fitted with a manual transmission, one a convertible, the other a non-S Coupe, and this S Coupe. Options include carbon fiber splitter, side strakes, wing mirrors, rear diffuser and tail light inserts. It is fitted with 19 inch gloss black diamond turned wheels. The interior is finished in Obsidian Black leather with silver contrast stitching and features a carbon fiber Herringbone and piano black facia. Happy to answer any questions here or through PM. Vehicle is in southern California and is for sale locally as well.

Fabulous car, I didn't know they did the Centenary edition for Vantages. I was looking at a DB9 in this color combo, but that car is a little large for me. I've just acquired another rare car (a Porsche 718 Spyder with a manual trans; GT Silver/Bordeaux leather and red ragtop) or I'd look seriously to get this one. I do know, though, that I'll see this someday and regret not owning it. I'm a dyed in the wool convertible guy, but would make an exception for this lol. GLWS
Exact same reaction when I saw it for the first time. There is no such thing as too many special cars... just sayin'. ;-) It's a very special car indeed, hoping to find a good home not just the asking price.
Anything in particular? Below is all of the good photos I have, 50 of them. Happy to snap photos of anything that anyone wants to see in specific.

Sharp looking any more pics of interior particularly bolsters and facings of front seats ? Age of tires ? Age of battery? Anything remarkable on service history ? Possible to get photo over top of hood without shadows and decent light to see the wonderful paint transition ? thanks
Tires need it (they're original). Battery was just replaced a few weeks ago (did it myself). Service history showed that there was an o-ring that needs to be replaced on the catch can and that the breathers were leaking a bit of oil and were replaced– about as unremarkable as it gets. I'll try and get the photo of the hood paint, definitely on the interior photos. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Hood and seats as requested. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thanks that is helpful clutch replaced ? Other services prior to one listed ? What owner number are you ? Do you have original sticker ?
Clutch is original, AM SD never mentioned it needing it. I'm owner #4 (original, #2 I have contact info, #3 had the car for 6 months before selling to me). 4th year service below, as well as window sticker. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Monday morning bump. Carfax was requested, so posting up for everyone else interested. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Had a request by someone interested for a close up on the seat scratch, the steering wheel scratch and a small imperfection on the dash. The large format photos I took above had a decent amount of editing done, part of that was increased contrast and dehaze that left some of those areas enhanced visually. To the naked eye, these photos represent the condition of each area much more accurately (ie not worth the cost of repair IMO).

Those seat scratches can easily be repaired for under 50 bucks and in about 10 minutes with Colourlock's Aston Martin obsidian black dye repair kit.
Those dashboard leather panels are all modular and pretty easy to remove. You'd have to remove about 2-3 to get to the one that's slightly stretched but even then it's no more than 60 minutes of work the first time you do it. Once removed, it can easily be stretched back or reupholstered. I had to do it on my former V8 Vantage. Beautiful car btw and good luck!
Have you used Colourlock yourself? Curious to hear how it is to use and how it holds up. Thank you for the info. Yeah, it should be a simple fix, I've just never gotten around to it. You don't have a youtube video handy on the disassembly by chance do you? The battery install wasn't too bad.
