Description
• Original left hand drive configuration • Subject to a 10-year restoration completed recently to original specification • Eligible to compete in prestigious international events • Property from the collection of a private Belgian gentleman • French registration document "The Aston Martin DB2/4 is an expensive car designed to cater for the connoisseur of sports cars who is not limited by financial considerations." - Autocar, 2nd October 1953.
With the introduction of the '2+2' DB2/4 in October 1953, Aston Martin extended the DB2's appeal to the hitherto untapped yet increasingly important market comprised of 'sports car enthusiasts with a family'.
Modifications to the rear of the chassis plus a reduction in fuel tank capacity from 19 to 17 gallons liberated sufficient space within the existing design for two child-sized occasional rear seats.
Alternatively, the rear seat backs could be folded down, thus creating a load-carrying platform that more than doubled the luggage space.
