The Appeal
After a long hiatus, Aston Martin rekindled the DB moniker in 1993 for the DB7. However, it's the DB7's successor, the DB9, where the firm really got into its stride, introducing a brand-new, unique aluminium platform unlike the Jaguar XJS-derived DB7. Powered by a magnificent 5.9-litre V12 engine, the DB9 delivers an intoxicating blend of grand touring comfort and sports car performance that has made it an enduring modern classic: an icon of the so-called 'Peak Car' era.
This 2005 example benefits from long-term ownership, with the previous keeper having maintained the car for over a decade before the current owner acquired it in July 2025. The vehicle reportedly comes with full service history, including a recent main dealer service at 64,000 miles, demonstrating the careful maintenance this DB9 has received throughout its life. An advisory-free MOT until July 2026 further shows what a fine example this is.
The vendor summarises:
"Fantastic drive and the exhaust makes the most of the V12."
