Craftsmanship

When it comes to craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail an Aston Martin is like a fine piece of furniture, a Swiss watch or a bespoke tailor-made suit. Nothing is rushed. Quality, and not the clock, dictates the pace, whether it’s in the process of assembling the engine, painting and polishing the bodywork or stitching the upholstery. When it comes to building an Aston Martin, perfection is the only acceptable standard.

Perhaps the finest example of this ethos is the Virage’s leather interior. Even by Aston Martin’s standards it has had extensive time and skill lavished upon it. New combinations of colour and texture seduce and delight your senses, while an expert machinist stitches every seam for absolute accuracy and consistency. A bold new pinstripe welt on the seats and door inserts is a feature unique to the Virage. A method taken from hand-made shoe design, it’s a striking and hugely labour-intensive technique, and something that adds yet more richness and craftsmanship. Additional stitch detailing along the doors leads your gaze around the cockpit, its smooth flow wholly reliant on the talent and dexterity of our expert leatherworkers. The result is an interior of exquisite quality and genuine artistry.
