Who is selling this Aston Martin V8, and how does a purchase work?

Tom Hartley, a professional dealer in Swadlincote, United Kingdom. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Aston Martin V8 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Swadlincote, United Kingdom, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer.

Is this Aston Martin V8 still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Tom Hartley before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.
