The Aston Martin DB6 was launched at the London Motor Show in 1965, following on from the highly successful DB5, immortalised by the 1964 James Bond film 'Goldfinger'. The front of the DB6 was visually similar to the DB5 but closer inspection revealed quite a different car. The wheelbase was lengthened allowing additional passenger space in the rear along with a raised roof line and a Kamm-tail rear spoiler for improved high-speed stability. The profile of the rear quarter lights echoed those of the DB4 GT Zagato, a styling theme that continued through to the DBS and V8 models until production finished in 1990.
Presented in beautiful Sierra Blue metallic with grey Connolly leather interior, this example was first registered on 22nd June 1967 with the registration YO M80 and was sold through H.R Owen to B Stitcher and sons Ltd. Specified with the Borg Warner automatic gearbox no.10374, chrome wire wheels, heated rear screen, 3-ear hub caps, power aerial and power steering diagonal and lap seat belts and 3.54.1 limited slip differential. The first owner cherished this example until the summer of 1988 when it passed to the current owner where it has been for some 37 years.
Supplied with the original build sheet, it now records on the V5 registration document as two previous keepers and is offered with the original spec /order. It was serviced last in November 2025 and has an MoT test certificate until November 2026 with no advisories and had new tyres fitted in June 2025.
An original UK car with a great service history which is noted in the accompanying history file, this represents a lovely and very usable DB6 with new carpets, trim works and classic power steering. Recent expenditure on the car includes £40,000 spent in November 2024 coupled to an engine rebuild at 81,000 miles, again with invoices in the history file surmounting to £30,000.
Along with this is a gear box recondition and bills from specialists such as Trinity Engineering with another £17,000 spent on various maintenance throughout the last year including wishbones and various suspension works, new alternator, battery, tyres, timing chain adjustment and a recent service with invoices from specialist engineers. An original workshop manual and original handbook can also be found rounding of the provenance of DB63122R. Consigned by Mathew Priddy
