When it debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, the DBS Volante brought together two legendary names from Aston Martin’s past that, to devotees of the marque, needed no introduction.
First,
DBS
. The inaugural DBS arrived in 1967, toward the tail end of Aston Martin’s crucial David Brown era, as a muscular yet elegant tourer. The DBS nameplate was revived in 2007; true to form, it was an imposing machine wrapped in instant-classic styling. Motivation came from a 510-horsepower version of the company’s 5.9-liter V-12, which could be paired with either six-speed manual or six-speed automatic gearboxes.
Second is
Volante
. Italian for “flying,” it has—since the introduction of the DB Short-Wheelbase Volante in 1965—been used to denote convertible versions of Aston Martin’s exquisite tourers. More than that, the word instantly conjures the carefree thrills and romance that one can only experience behind the wheel of a fine open-top automobile.
Of course, one need not be a student of Aston Martin history to recognize that the DBS Volante is something special. Luxurious features abound, including a power fabric top that can stow away in as little in 15 seconds at speeds of up to 30 mph. Adaptive driving modes and carbon-ceramic brakes provide confident handling and secure stopping no matter how spirited one decides to get behind the wheel.
With only 845 examples believed to have been built in total, the DBS Volante is an undoubtedly rare beast. The car offered here further distinguishes itself with its stunning color combination: Q-specification California Sage over an Absynthe Green leather interior. Further options include the six-speed automatic transmission, 10-spoke diamond-turned Silver wheels, Magnum Silver meshes and Silver fascia trim inlays, and seatbelts in Warm Charcoal.
Enhancing its desirability, this DBS Volante has enjoyed a life of modest use and diligent care. After its acquisition by the consignor in 2019, it has been treated to regular maintenance as well as close attention to cosmetic condition, with further service to ensure proper operation of its convertible top; invoices on file detail the work performed. At the time of cataloguing, the car displayed only 16,272 miles.
Positioned as Aston Martin’s flagship convertible tourer when new, and every bit as impressive today, the DBS Volante seems destined to age as finely as the British marque’s great historical offerings. With its striking specification and history of limited use, this is an example worthy of careful consideration by the discriminating collector.
