THE DB 5, the Aston produced between 1963 and 1965 is - perhaps - one of the most known and iconic model of the English sport car producer (it has been James Bond's car in "Goldfinger" featuring pop out gun barrels behind the front lights and a bullet shield behind the rear window).
Built in 1.021 pieces (123 in the cabriolet "Volante" version) n England, the body-work has been signed by Milanese's Touring coach builder: that's why all these masterpieces show the "Superleggera"label.
The engine is an in-line 6 cylinder of 3.995cc capable of 282cv and of a top speed of 238km/h.
Special version of DB5 are the DB5 Vantage (314cv), built in 1964 in 65 pieces and the DB5 Volante, the cabriolet. One of them has been used by Prince William and Kate leaving Buckingham Palace after their wedding.
