Needs heavily recommissioning...

Many changes have been made during the 17 years that has elapsed from the cars unveiling. The silver over light grey machine in now painted in two tone metallic green, whilst the brown leather of the interior had been replaced by stone leather piped in brown. Other additions to the car include (rather bling) gold plating trim to switches and gear stick, roof mounted stereo, ugly but useful rear view mirrors and a TV showing the rear-view of the car. This picture shows the extent that the doors extend into the sill area to enable easier entry and exit from the low seating position.

Interestingly the car has lost the fuel injection system initially fitted and now has quad Weber carburettors. These are I think of the side draught type and are paired up within the 'V' unlike the down draught type fitted in a line down the centre as would be found in a Vantage.

?1,300,000... so this or a One-77? No contest.

who is selling it? aston? or is it already in private hands?

i want to see a pic of that car with the lights on (the front bumper lowers to reveal the lights), but i've never found one :(
 
It's in private hands.
After the development program was over, Aston Martin sold the only Bulldog to the highest bidder for about ?130,000in 1980

It went to a Saudi Prince, hence the crap added.

Power output with dual Zenith Carburetters reached 30 hp (22 kW) at 4500 rpm, more than adequate for the 660 lb (300 kg) car. Leaf springs were now fitted all around, and the car rode on a roughly 2 m (79 in) wheelbase.

So what 92hp per tonne?

Doesn't get more basic than this, the petrol tank looks Pinto-ish. :|

Price: 162,952 GBP (195,000 EUR)

Want one

I would do unspeakable things for pretty much any pre-war Bugatti. The older, funkier, and more obscure, the better.

Contact Sharpie Sideburns immediately!!!
Maybe he could do a comparison between this and a Reventon?
 
@Aston..I googled it..unfortunately...
 
How the hell do you people NOT know who Peter North is....it's common knowledge, like the sky is blue.
