Description
This 1999 Aston Martin Virage 6.3L Coupe is a truly exceptional example with a fascinating provenance. Originally built in 1992, it was supplied new - though never registered - to the Sultan of Brunei and remained unused in his private collection for several years.
In 1998, the car was returned to the factory where it underwent a comprehensive rebuild and restoration, including the sought-after 6.3L V8 Lagonda engine conversion. Producing an impressive 475bhp and capable of 178mph, the transformation also included a full body kit, front and rear spoilers, fresh black paintwork, and mechanical upgrades to the suspension and braking system - now with ABS - for a total cost of approximately 200,000.
Following its restoration, the car was finally registered as new in the UK in 1999.
Presented in striking black coachwork with a black leather interior detailed with red piping, it features electric memory front seats, a manual transmission, a black dash roll, and polished alloy split rims.
With its royal connection, low mileage, and extensive factory upgrades, this is an outstanding opportunity for the discerning collector.
