One to Buy: 154 mile Candy Red 2022 Aston Martin Valkyrie
/ Ben Tyer
It’s no secret that here at Supercar Nostalgia we think, of all the high end machinery produced this century, the Aston Martin Valkyrie is far and away the most impressive.
In addition to a specification unparalleled in the modern era, the Valkyrie was blessed with a perfectly balanced avant garde beauty that, combined with its array of cutting edge design features, positioned the Adrian Newey-designed car in a different league to anything else that has emerged since the dawn of the millennium.
With all that in mind though, these cars are currently selling at a fraction of what it would cost to get into a Ferrari LaFerrari or Pagani Zonda which, in all honesty, are simply not in the same league whichever metric you want to measure them by.
Currently on offer at the Tom Hartley Jnr. showroom in Leicestershire is a particularly nice delivery mileage Valkyrie from 2022 and the third from last example built: chassis 148.
The unique specification settled on by 148’s first owner comprised Valkyrie Candy Red paint with Black alcantara upholstery and a huge number of optional extras to include the roof and engine cover in high gloss exposed carbonfibre, an exposed carbonfibre roof strake, masses of Mokume carbonfibre inside and out, suspension shrouds in exposed satin carbonfibre, titanium badges, matt black aluminium honeycomb wheels, black brake calipers and the full Inconel exhaust system with black exhaust pipes.
Chassis 148 comes with the remainder of its manufacturers’ warranty (which runs until November 2025) and underwent its most recent service at the Aston Martin factory in February 2024.
