Specifications

More lovable, more rounded than a Bentley Continental GT. Drives better than a Ferrari 575. Less expensive than all it’s rivals. A real, fabulous, magnificent; Aston Martin DB9. – Jeremy Clarkson

This 2+2 Grand Tourer from Aston Martin was groundbreaking. Innovative in every way. Marek Reichman, Aston Martin’s design director at the time, thought about every detail. Enjoying this car begins when you grab the key from the table in your English country house. When you get the key in your hands, it immediately gives you a sense of ownership; the theme song of the Champions League starts playing in your head. You get in, turn the key, and after the hands briefly show their maximum you are pleasantly overwhelmed by the roaring sound of the 6.0 V12. You giggle a little, and are slightly tense.

The car feels like transport for a gentleman, but when you reach higher revs you unleash a bloodthirsty English tiger. Pure emotion is evoked by a balance of power, performance and chic elegance. You tap the car into first gear as if you were giving a gentle pat on the bum. After half an hour of driving, you know for sure; you have had the honour of driving an icon. You have driven a timeless Aston Martin DB9.

This beautiful DB9? Originally, the car was delivered in 2004 in Munich, in the south of Germany, and has been dealer-maintained ever since. In the Netherlands the car is Kroymans-maintained. So you can be sure that this beauty, which has always slept inside, will get many more beautiful miles. Power, beauty and soul come together in a sculpture of automotive passion. We challenge you to come and drive the Aston Martin for a while, and then fall in love with this Meteorite Silver David Brown 9.

See you soon?

I’m sorry, but having an Aston Martin DB9 on the drive and not driving it is a bit like having Keira Knightley in your bed and sleeping on the couch. – Jeremy Clarkson, again
