Once AML engineering team had finished with DP2034/1, the car went over the road to Works Service where is was comprehensively rebuilt, fully finished, painted and trimmed and sold to a UK collector. Although I have never seen the car myself, Keith Riddington of Classicmobila has allowed me to use his period image of the car.

The completed Virage, when unveiled at the 1988 Birmingham Motor Show was the first new Aston Martin for 18 year so long as you exclude the wedge Lagonda. Styled by the British team of John Heffernan and Ken Greenley, the beat off stiff opposition from others during a competition held by AML to decide on the new design. This silver car above is the third prototype Virage, DP2034/3, taken on the turntable at the AML stand at the 1988 event.
At this time, the surrounds to the Audi 200 sourced headlights were finished in black, something that never featured on the production cars. The other car on show at Birmingham was DP2034/4, finished in Balmoral Green was photographed extensively for the sales brochure and the rare Virage book.
