The Appeal
The massive array of Bond-inflected, silver-themed shades for the DB9 makes this Toro Red metallic example a rare and very tasteful way to celebrate one of Aston Martin’s most beautiful and successful designs.
The paintwork is mated to a mahogany-trimmed Obisidian Black leather interior. Thanks to the low mileage and handful of keepers, the inside and out is very well kept with few indications of its 20 years.
The service history is equally impressive, showing a regular run of main dealer and specialist maintenance up to 60,000 miles. In 2024 the gearbox oil cooler was upgraded and the box received a service and oil change.
The car comes to market with the added reassurance of a lengthy, advisory-free MOT valid to May 2026.
The vendor says:
“Vehicle is a dream to drive, the V12 sounds superb. Even being a 20 year old car it still turns heads and makes people smile.”
