Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This is a 1958 Aston Martin DB MKIII Sports Saloon, one of 551 made, and an original left-hand drive example. It was restored in the late 1990s, has been under present ownership since 2010, and will require re-commissioning before being road-ready.
Condition
5
The car has been stored since acquisition in 2010 and will require re-commissioning before returning to the road. It was restored in the late 1990s and has matching engine and chassis numbers, but the need for re-commissioning suggests it is not in top condition.

Description
•
One of only 551 DB Mk
IIIs made • Original LHD example in its original colours • Restored by Kevin Kay in the late 1990s • Present ownership since 2010 • Matching engine and chassis numbers • No Reserve Two years after the introduction of the DB2/4 Mk
II came the DB Mark III, 551 of which, mainly saloons, were made between March 1957 and July 1959.
Externally the most obvious change was the adoption of a DB3S-style grille, establishing the 'hallmark' look of subsequent Aston Martins.
This restyled nose give the car a more imposing look, while the interior boasted a redesigned dashboard with instruments grouped in a cowled panel ahead of the driver.
The 3.0-litre DBA engine benefited from an extensive redesign by Tadek Marek (newly arrived from Austin) and featured, among other improvements, a stiffer block, stronger crankshaft, and a new cylinder head with bigger valves.
162bhp was available with the single-pipe exhaust system, 178bhp with the optional twin-pipe version.
