ASTON MARTIN VOLANTE FOR SALE FULL
So 22 full POW specifaction cars with weber carburettors were built in right hand drive. The car never was released fully and never had a brochure or was on the official price list, but a further 27 POW's were built (in addition to Charles own car) and were built between 1986 to 1989, of which five were were built for the US market and had the injection engine with less power and the ugly black impact bumpers.

Word went around among Aston Martin's preferred clients about the special Royal car proceeding down the line. The centre box to be raised to a hight for a arm rest and a glass jar to fill with sugar lumps for his polo pony's, Nardi steering wheel and wood gear knob to match.Īston Martin Chairman, Victor Gauntlett at the time rather liked Charles creation and so did many others walking the production line, so Victor ordered one for himself and the order was placed as a "POW Spec".

He also stipulated some other options to include, no ash tray, but a small compartment for his sun glasses, no cigar lighter and the switches to be sunk into the trim. HRH's colour choice was British Racing Green with dark green hood and mushroom leather trim. A discreet front spoiler, much like the regular V8 Volante and no boot flip. What Prince Charles wanted was a Vantage Volante without the bodykit! So ensuing discussions with the Aston Martin factory, it was agreed to build a Volante to full Vantage mechanical specifaction, 400bhp-plus X Pack engine, but without spoilers, skirts distended wheel arches, but still have the flared wheel arches to accommodate the Vantages larger Ronal alloy wheels.
