2006 ASTON MARTIN DB9 VOLANTE

KEY FACTS

• A beautifully presented example of the DB9 Volante in a distinctive colour scheme, and with good service history.
• Under the bonnet is a 5.9-litre naturally aspirated V12, producing 450bhp and 420lb-ft of torque, powering the rear wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission.
• Originally delivered to Arizona, this DB9 has had only two owners from new, and is now located in and registered in the Netherlands as an EU taxes-paid car.
• It is offered with a recently replaced convertible roof and retrimmed leather interior.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• The car is finished in a vibrant combination of Rothesay Red paint over a Chancellor Red and cream leather cabin, set against a silver grey centre console. The black convertible roof features a matching cream lining.
• The original specification includes a surround-sound Linn audio system, satellite navigation, electrically operated seats and roof, wind deflector, electrically folding wing mirrors, and rear parking sensors. The car also features a multi-function steering wheel and cruise control.
• There are no modifications.
• The service book and owner’s manual are included in the sale, as well as an Aston Martin umbrella, tyre sealant and compressor, and three keys with two remotes.

CONDITION

• The bodywork is in very good order, with no known previous damage.
• The paintwork presents very well and with a deep shine. There are a couple of minor marks to the lower section of the front bumper, and a few small stone chips across the front end of the car, commensurate with its age and mileage.
• The black convertible roof was replaced approximately two years ago and is in excellent condition.
• The red and cream leather interior is in excellent condition, with the seats having been re-trimmed around 10 months ago due to discolouration. They remain in superb order, though there is some modest wear on the steering wheel and other high contact points.
• There are no known mechanical or electrical faults.
• The last roadworthiness test was in June 2021, which it passed with no advisories or warnings.
