In place of genuinely new models, and in what eventually became standard practice for constantly-cash-strapped Aston Martin, the cleanly styled V8 gradually sprouted a variety of increasingly wild body mods and numerous, even larger engine conversions reaching a peak with the rather vulgar Vantage and Vantage Volante 6.3.
Prince Charles stuck with the marque, however, and even ordered a hot convertible for himself, albeit without the tacky side skirts and flared wheel arches. The less-is-more idea caught on, and a handful of replicas were later built in what is still known as Prince of Wales specification.
