'Don't let the sun go down on' this, a 1980's Rocket car once owned by the Rocket Man himself, Sir Elton John.
Sir Elton John's Aston Martin V8 Vantage for sale
Ordered from and supplied by Nicholas Mee in 1985, this exceptional Aston Martin V8 Vantage was ordered and built specifically to Sir Elton specifications. Personally delivered to his Old Windsor home on the same day Sir Elton also took delivery of a new Bentley! Finished in Royal Cherry with Magnolia hides, Sir Elton owned the car for some 16 years before it was presented to Christies in 2001, to be publicly auctioned along with his significant collection of cars.
During Sir Elton's ownership the car was maintained regularly, regardless of the low mileage, with the engine upgraded in 1992 to the renowned 7.0 litre / 500 horse power specification, by Aston Martin Heritage specialists R S Williams Ltd.
Purchased at Christies in 2001 the car has had just two owners since then and has been maintained by Aston Martin specialists to the highest standards. Now with 45,000 miles covered the car is offered with a comprehensive history file, original service voucher book and owners manual. Last but not least, a copy of the Christies auction catalogue featuring this car and personally signed by Sir Elton John is included.
