Unfortunately I'm not aware of any floating around. It's a pricey item actually. And you do want to get one specific for your model year and country of sale as there are difference across model years and 'the pond'. You might try eBay. I know that there are service manuals on CD available there.

You can download a pdf copy of the owner's manual here: https://www.astonmartintechinfo.com/login.aspx

But 1-day access will cost you about USD $110.

But for that price you can download as much as you want. In addition to the owner's manual you can get the workshop manual, service bulletins, wiring diagrams, and documents for specific problem areas, issues & fixes. In most cases there are separate documents for each model & model year.

It's a pretty decent service at the price if you've got a couple of hours to grab everything you might need while you're there.

Yes, particularly considering that the burned CD version of the service manuals goes for $80 (about 3x any other car) on eBay.

Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I think that the owner's manual should be included for free once you've purchased the car.

100% agreed. The owners manaul goes with the car wherever that car goes!

...if the car gets crushed to owners manual should be in glovebox getting crushed too, okay maybe this is the one exception, um okay one more if the car gets driven into a body of water...another exception lol
