** REGRETFULLY WITHDRAWN ** 2006 Aston Martin DB9 Volante

** REGRETFULLY WITHDRAWN ** Launched at the 2003 Frankfurt motor show, the exceptional Aston Martin DB9 promised to be one of the most sought after supercars of the decade. Henrik Fisker's flowing design retained all the good looks of its predecessor, the highly acclaimed DB7. Weight was kept low by the use of aluminium and composites for the bodywork while power from the V12 was a healthy 450bhp which provided the Aston with acceleration to 100mph from standstill in only 10 seconds, then on to a near 190mph maximum speed. Weight distribution was a perfect 50:50 thanks to the front-mid engine layout with rear-mounted sequential transmission.

This left-hand drive DB9 Volante was sold new on 8th August 2006 by HWM Aston Martin. The car has covered a mere 28,214 kilometres or 17,531 miles from new and benefits from only one owner from new.

Presented in pristine condition inside and out, the service history is equally impressive and substantiates the low mileage and provides reassurance that the car has been maintained carefully by our vendor. There are a total of 6 stamps in the service book and the last service was carried out at 26,100 kilometres.

The bodywork is finished in Meteorite Silver and all panels are free from ripples or evidence of damage or repair. The paintwork retains a deep shine and the colour perfectly suits the subtle lines of the DB9. The interior is finished in tan leather and complements the paintwork beautifully. The leather is blemish free and the carpets look factory fresh. The soft top is in stunning condition with virtually no blemishes to the canvas or headlining and the roof operating system works without fault at the push of a button.

The engine is in fine health, fires up with haste and sounds throaty yet civilised, and the gearbox operates without fault and offers seamless gear changes in both automatic mode or using the paddles. On the road, the car handles sublimely and is remarkably refined over even the bumpiest of terrain. No untoward noises or knocks can be felt or heard and the car tracks perfectly true with no vibration. This DB9 Volante represents an ideal opportunity to acquire a fabulous low mileage Aston Martin at a fraction of its cost when new.
