Throwback to last year when the iconic Aston Martin V-8-powered Super Cygnet went up for public sale with just 2,893 miles on it.
A 4.7-liter V-8 used in the Vantage S replaced the dinky four-cylinder. It sent 430 hp to the rear wheels, which required all sorts of engineering to tame. The front and rear subframes from the Vantage S were pulled for duty, including both the suspension and ABS system. Forged wheels are wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Inside, Aston fitted a full roll cage and Recaro racing buckets. Curb weight stood at just 3,031 pounds.
