Description

Described as a real driver’s car, this stunning DB6 Volante has been fitted with a manual gearbox and upgraded to ‘Vantage spec’. From the Aston’s history file, it appears that its first owner retained the car until May 1980 when he sold it to a gentleman based in Lyon, France. The third owner was also French but it seems he moved to Switzerland at some point during his ownership of the DB6. The fourth owner was also based in Switzerland, having purchased the car on the 14th January 2002. There is a further invoice from 2006 from a ‘Sammy Garage’, a restoration company based in Geneva, prior to the car being exported from Switzerland.Comes with 1 year Aston Workshop GuaranteeAccording to a copy of the original build sheet, this right-hand drive, DB6 Mk1 Volante was delivered to its first owner, Dr Frank Sondheimer of Kensington Palace Gardens, London on the 11th February 1967. DBVC/3611/R had been ordered in Sierra Blue with grey interior and a matching convertible roof and specified from new with Borg-Warner automatic transmission, 3.54:1 limited-slip differential, chrome wire wheels, a power-operated aerial, 7 pints of antifreeze, and power-assisted steering.There are various invoices in the file from the car's time in France and Switzerland along with a ‘Livret D’entretien et D’utilisation’ booklet for DB5/6 Volantes. It has spent the past 10 years or so in a large private collection of carefully selected Aston Martins. The very pinnacle of British open-top motoring in the 1960s, this beautiful DB6 Volante has, at some point, been fitted with a manual gearbox and upgraded to ‘Vantage spec’ ensuring that, once returned to the roads, this will be a real driver’s car to use and enjoy.Finished in Sierra Blue exterior and a Magnolia Leather interior, this particular DB6 has completed 10,509 miles.
