Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Aftermarket air conditioning, Pioneer CD stereo, power windows, chrome wire wheels, Pirelli P4000 tires, Talbot outside mirrors.

Condition

Represented as the original engine. Four owners from new. Restored in 1996, engine rebuilt more recently. Chipped, scratched and dinged all over. In addition to the edge chips the driver's door has abraded the front fender from interference. The upholstery is sound but patinaed. The steering wheel rim wood is scratched. The gauges are very good and sharp, though. The underbody is original and dirty. Not as encouraging as it deserves to be.

Market commentary

Used, and not particularly gently, this DB5 was sold by Christie's in New York in 2003 for $139,500. Times haev changed in the past seventeen years, but this car hasn't changed much beyond getting older. It brought a reasonable price here in Paris.
