SUMMARY

Finished in the enduringly elegant combination of Meteorite Silver over Iron Ore Red leather, this two-owner Aston Martin DB9 is a very low-mileage example which has benefited from substantial recent investment at a cost of over £10,000 to address the recognised weak points of the early V12 cars. Supported by extensive specialist expenditure, well-documented service history, and a tasteful Apple CarPlay enhancement, it represents a particularly appealing example of Aston Martin's landmark grand tourer. It would make an enjoyable addition to any collection of modern classic British performance cars, equally suited to long-distance touring or relaxed weekend drives.
