The car was launched in June 2002 and was limited to just 24 examples, 19 in right hand drive for the UK (9 coupes, 10 Volantes) and a further 5 with left hand drive for continental Europe.

All 24 cars were pre-sold and their lucky owners took delivery at a very special ceremony held at Thornbury Castle. The cars were especially hidden from the excited new owners during the daylight hours in a large marquee especially labelled ‘Tinnars Moat Craft Fair’ – Tinnars Moat is of course an anagram of Aston Martin. After a lavish meal, the sides of the dining marquee were dropped and the cars were revealed.

In addition to the UK/European cars, there were a further 26 cars made, all left hand drive, for the North American market to exactly the same cosmetic specifications.
