A rare opportunity to own a road registered example of this ultimate icon. Dubbed ‘the most famous car in the world’ and renowned as being among the most desirable and sought-after classic Aston Martin models, the DB5 has become a byword for timeless style and sports car desirability. Fewer than 900 cars were built between 1963 and 1965, with by far the most famous of the original owners being the world’s best-known secret agent – James Bond – who first drove the car that is today inextricably linked with him in the 1964 film, Goldfinger. 60 years after the last new DB5 rolled elegantly off the production line, 25 strictly limited production DB5 Goldfinger Continuation models were created in association with Bond filmmaker EON Productions The meticulous DB5 Goldfinger Continuation construction process took around 4,500 hours per car and was undertaken under the same roof as where the original cars were made - at Aston Martin Works - Aston Martin’s globally renowned Heritage Division headquarters in Newport Pagnell. As the largest, best equipped and most knowledgeable Aston Martin restoration centre in the world, the invaluable and highly specialist skills nurtured at Aston Martin Works are perfectly suited to the brand’s celebrated Continuation projects. DB5 Goldfinger Continuation was built to the highest quality using a blend of Sir David Brown-era old world craftsmanship, with the sympathetic application of modern engineering advancements and performance enhancements, alongside the integration of cutting-edge gadgets developed in association with Chris Corbould OBE, the special effects supervisor who has worked on more than a dozen Bond films. The list of Bond-inspired gadgets includes: Exterior: • Rear smoke screen delivery system • Rear simulated oil slick delivery system • Revolving number plates front and rear (triple plates) • Simulated twin front machine guns • Bullet resistant rear shield • Battering rams front and rear • Simulated tyre slasher • Removable passenger seat roof panel (optional equipment) Interior: • Simulated radar screen tracker map • Telephone in driver’s door • Gear knob actuator button • Armrest and centre console-mounted switchgear • Under-seat hidden weapons/storage tray • Remote control for gadget activation DB5 Goldfinger is a meticulously detailed authentic reproduction of the DB5 seen on screen, with some sympathetic modifications and enhancements to ensure the highest levels of build quality and reliability. It is instantly recognisable by its Silver Birch paint – just like the original. Scores of world-class Aston Martin craftsmen and women, technicians, development engineers and designers were involved, working carefully with a suite of handpicked suppliers from across the world - ensuring that each new DB5 matches the aspirations and the duty to the brand’s iconic heritage.
