Aston Martin V8 Vantage Volante
(POW for Prince Michael of Kent)  (1988)

Strictly speaking, this car is a POW spec Vantage Volante, but it was built for another member of the Royal Family, Prince Michael of Kent and since I have some really nice pictures of this car, I think it deserves a unique page on this site. There is a tendency to describe this car as PMoK speciation although this isn't an official factory name.
What is unusual and unique about his particular car is that, unlike many of the POW cars, it wasn't painted BRG or Hunter Green, but originally the lighter metallic Burnham Green. At some time in the 1990's it was re-painted to a darker green, but the current owner has, during restoration, gone back to the original shade.  In this picture, the PMoK car is conveniently parked next to an Oscar India V8 also in Burnham Green.

The condition of the PMoK car is concourse right down to the hidden 'panic buttons' than a VIP would use to to alert the security forces to an attack.
