Rocketman Elton John’s Aston Martin for sale

A mint Aston Martin DB7 Volante first registered to Sir Elton John is for sale on Auto Trader – and it could be yours for £34,990.

Only 66 manual DB7 Volantes were built, making this car especially rare. This particular example has been finished in metallic Toro Red with a magnolia interior and full walnut veneers.

It comes complete with an electric roof, cruise control, air conditioning and heated seats. Not bad for a 27-year-old model.

It has 79,000 miles on the clock and the car has clearly been well-looked after with a lot of attention from Aston Martin Works and other specialists.

Other Volantes with a high mileage are likely to go for approximately £26,000, so it seems there is a premium placed on this car due to its celebrity owner, along with it having been given star treatment over the years, and being maintained to the highest standard.

The car is available from Baker Brothers in Cobham, who can be contacted through the Auto Trader ad.
