Description
“Collection by Vermant” is pleased to be able to offer you this magnificent Aston Martin DB7. This DB7 is equipped with the rarer Inline 6 supercharged engine. This is regarded by purists as the better engine, being a lot less heavy in the nose as the V12 variant. It is also a lot rarer than the V12 with almost half the production. The Supercharged 6 cilinder produces a healthy 335 HP and is mated to a 4 speed automatic gearbox, making this a perfect long distance cruiser. This specific Aston Martin was a rare Belgian delivered example and was delivered through Aston Martin dealer René Michiels (now Aston Martin Antwerp) in January 1997. He really used the car as intended and drove the car regularly adding around 10. 000km on the odometer every single year. After a couple of years the car was sold and toured Europe being in Lithuania and Denmark but unfortunately not much is known from its time abroad. It was then acquired by a Belgian collector in 2022 bringing the car back home to where it started its life.
This specific DB7 was very well configured and is presented in the beautiful colour Galloway Green. This suits the car very well and gives it a very elegant and classy look. To add to the colour the colour of the wheels was specified in silver to give a little contrast to the green of the car. Today the paintwork on the car presents very nicely and has a deep shine throughout.
Going over to the inside, we can see that the green exterior colour was chosen as an accent in the interior. This is combined with a Parchment coloured leather interior. This gives the interior a very spacious and premium feel and is still in excellent condition. The headliner was specified in a Parchment alcantara to blend in perfectly with the leather in the car. To give the interior an added touch, the car was specified with a dark Burr Walnut veneer trim finish. This contrasts beautifully to the green and parchment leather and gives a premium feel to the interior. The interior is not only beautiful in its configuration but also in the condition it’s in. Despite the mileage it is in almost brand new condition with hardly any signs of wear.
