AI Listing Summary
This 1967 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage, originally delivered to Zambia, has undergone significant enhancements, including an engine rebuild to 4.7 liters by R S Williams Ltd and a professional restoration in South Africa around 2018. While retaining some original features like the limited-slip differential, it now sports a Silver Birch exterior and has been UK registered since 2019, offering a blend of classic appeal and performance upgrades.
Condition

Though recently serviced, the need for restoration suggests it's not in pristine condition and has experienced wear and modifications over its lifetime.
