About this car

This 1965 Aston Martin DB5 has been restored to Vantage specification, which here means triple Weber carburettors in place of the standard SU setup. It is finished in Silver Birch over maroon leather and is paired with a manual gearbox.

Beyond the engine work, the car has several upgrades for modern use: power steering, air conditioning, a limited-slip differential and a handling kit with anti-roll bars. The odometer shows about 65,000 miles from new.

The car is in a private collection near Belfast, Northern Ireland, and has been looked after by the collection's in-house mechanic. It is registered in the UK as DUS369C, and the chassis number is DB5/1985/R.
