This beautiful car is from 1964, the same year as Bond drove his Aston Martin DB5 for the first time in the movie Goldfinger.

Finished in the same iconic Silver Birch colour scheme as the legendary James Bond vehicle.

It has been cherished by its current owner since 1988, when he purchased it from his father-in-law - a true family vehicle.

This is a fast car rendered even quicker by some engine enlargement, taking it up to an impressive 4.2 litre capacity and adding in V8 Vantage valves.

Due to its original state, it needs a lot of restoration work if you want to get the car in concours standard. Therefor the price of the Aston Martin DB5 2183 RD is relatively low, with an estimated £350,000 - 450,000 ($470,000 - 600,000 / €400,000 - 510,000).
