Description
A beautiful 1997 Aston Martin DB7 Coupe i6 finished in Pentland green metallic and trimmed with Parliament green leather with light tan piping, carpets trimmed in Parliament green. Originally supplied new by Stratton Motor Company and serviced with ourselves, built new with a 5-speed manual gearbox. It comes with a very large detailed and documented history file, kept up meticulously by the previous owners with every mile and receipt recorded, fitted with a the rare and desirable 5-speed manual gearbox.
Original handbooks, leather-bound wallet and service history stamps with stacks of receipts and a spare key. It was while under the chairmanship of the dynamically named Victor Gauntlet that Aston Martin first considered developing a baby Aston. The idea was very sound, to deliver a car that could boost Astons minuscule production numbers and be sold in all their worldwide markets as a gateway product to the more expensive and exclusive offerings.
As is often the way with Aston Martin, the gestation of the car was less than straightforward. However, when the DB7 finally arrived in 1994 it was very well received, it looked beautiful and opened up Aston Martin ownership to a much wider audience than ever before. As such a milestone car for Aston Martin, the DB7 surely has a promising future as a modern classic of distinction.
The car was available either as a Coup or a Convertible. The prototype was complete by November 1992 and debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1993. The car was designed by Ian Callum and Keith Helfet. The DB7 was the highest-produced Aston Martin ever, with more than 7,000 built before it was replaced in 2004 by the new DB9.
The DB7 six-cylinder 3.2 Litre supercharged was positioned below the hand-built V8 Virage introduced a few years earlier, producing 335 bhp and 362 Ibs/ft torque, giving a 0-60 mph in 5.7 seconds and a top speed of 165 mph. This fine example includes our 12 months parts and labour warranty with RAC roadside assistance.
