Servicing Guide

At Valiant Ecosse, every Aston Martin that enters our workshop — whether accompanied by a full dealer history or not — receives a personalised and thorough evaluation. We take the time to review the car’s service background with the owner, followed by a road test and short inspection. This enables us to determine the precise maintenance required to bring the vehicle up to our high standards of performance, reliability, and care.

All components and fluids used in our servicing are either genuine Aston Martin parts or strictly Aston Martin–approved equivalents, including Castrol engine oil for V8 models, OEM oil and air filters, spark plugs, and other critical items. For customers with track-focused or high-performance cars, we also offer tailored solutions using motorsport-grade fluids and components — such as Millers Competition oils, uprated gearbox and differential lubricants for higher temperatures, or endurance-grade replacement parts. This ensures the car is not only maintained to factory standards but is also fully capable of withstanding the demands of fast-road or competitive track use.

Our approach goes beyond the OEM standard — with a focus on preserving the full performance potential of each vehicle and ensuring it remains in prime condition long into the future.
