Shortly after re-organisation under new ownership as AML (1975) Ltd., Aston Martin resumed development of its highly successful V8. A host of improvements were to be incorporated in the forthcoming Series 4, scheduled for introduction in October 1978. Built from then until 1986, these were generally referred to as ‘Oscar India’ cars, standing for ‘October Introduction’. The most obvious differences were a re-styled bonnet and a swept up tail, while inside the cabin there was a re-designed dashboard and centre console, and the headlining became leather rather than cloth. There were other improvements, most notably to the air conditioning and shock absorber settings. From June 1980, a heavily revised version of the 5.3-litre V8 was fitted to production cars, featuring numerous modifications aimed at reducing emissions without compromising performance. Believed to be a two-owner car, the vendor purchased this car from Aston Martin Sales, Sloane Street, London, with about 9000 miles on the clock when the car was still fairly new. We understand this car was then maintained by Aston Martin at Newport Pagnell, and latterly by a local Aston agent. In sand metallic with excellent burgundy leather interior and automatic transmission, recorded mileage was 82,288 miles on inspection. Offering a good opportunity to implement worthwhile improvements, this car comes with Swansea V5, MoT and road tax.
