Car and history

​

The Aston Martin DBS’s have started to rocket in popularity and price. Last month for example, we sold two fully restored DBS at Richards of England for a sum of £500,000. DBS/5634/R is an opportunity to invest in an appreciating classic for just £120,000. This 6 cylinder DBS was first delivered to dealer Arnold G Wilson and registered on 1st July 1971. To this date it has managed to retain its ‘matching numbers’ engine and will be sold with its Heritage Trust certificate. It was purchased by the current owner on 12th November 2013 from a friend who, in turn, purchased the car in 2003. The owner gives credit to the previous owner who was a master technician and automatic transmission specialist. He maintained the car with no expense spared during his ownership. The car is now presented in the desirable olive green with tan colours.
