Specifications
The story behind this collectible...
"I'm sorry, but having an Aston Martin DB7 on the driveway and not driving it is a bit like having Keira Knightley in your bed and sleeping on the couch."
- Jeremy Clarkson
Where many brands find it extremely difficult to give their badges prestige, that is no problem at all at Aston Martin. Everyone knows what it stands for, not to mention that it was helped by British secret agent James Bond. Aston Martin is synonymous with charismatic, stylish and fast-paced gentleman Gran Turismo. Not a racing car, but definitely more sporty and agile than his British brother Bentley.
Because Aston Martin was quite small and liked to invest money where it mattered; handling, engine and experience, a lot of borrowed parts from good car brands were used to get the car finished 'within budget'. And let's be honest: if we don't say anything, you won't see it! This knowledge also makes maintenance a lot cheaper, everything is still widely available!
The DB7 has been an enormously important model for Aston Martin. Thanks to Ian Callum's design, after the DB7, the Vanquish, DB9 and V8 Vantage were tapped from the same 'design vessel'. And we know for sure; our DB7 is composed exactly as it was intended. In the Chiltern Green with a beautiful brown/green leather interior and dark oak. The 5.9 litre V12 and the hand basin are the icing on the cake. The ultimate Gentleman Cool Classic, for sale with us!
