Aston Martin V8 Vantage N24
The biggest news from this legendary British marque may be that it is no longer part of the Ford Motor Company, Premier Automotive Group.
Earlier this year Ford sold Aston Martin for around $900 million to a consortium comprised of David Richards, founder and chairman of Prodrive, a world-leading motorsport and automotive technology company; John Sinders, an avid Aston Martin collector and a backer of Aston Martin Racing; and Investment Dar and Adeem Investment Co, international investment companies headquartered in Kuwait.
It’s too early to tell what changes, if any, may occur in Aston’s product lineup. Meanwhile the company debuted a racing version of its V8 Vantage called the N24, based on the V8 Vantage that competed in the Nürburgring 24-hour endurance race—hence the name.
