The Aston Martin DBS was a grand tourer based on the DB9 and replaced the 2004 Vanquish S as the flagship model. The DBS name had been used once before on their 1967-72 grand tourer coupé and the modern car was officially unveiled at the 2007 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance on 16th August 2007, followed by the more traditional 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show. The convertible version of the DBS, dubbed the DBS Volante, was unveiled at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, followed this time by the 2009 Concours d'Elegance. Impressively, the roof could also be opened or closed even at speeds up to 30mph. Other features included rear-mounted six-speed manual or optional six-speed Touchtronic 2 automatic gearbox and a Bang and Olufsen BeoSound DBS in-car entertainment system with 13 speakers. The DBS was selected to be the service issue Aston Martin for the 2006 James Bond movie Quantum of Solace and starred in a record-breaking action sequence towards the end of the film and an exhilarating opening scene for Daniel Craig's second outing as Bond.

This example of James Bond’s favourite, the DBS, was first registered on 6th April 2011 to its first owner. Specified with special order Storm Black metallic paint with Obsidian Black and Lords Red contrasting leather trim, 20-inch diamond turn wheels, heated and memory seats. This 2+2 was a bespoke order and was owned for just over two years before being sold through Aston Martin to its second owner. Purchased in September 2016 and owned for nearly a decade thus having been in long term ownership, the car is offered with a comprehensive service record with the most recent expenditure being several thousand pounds spent in April 2024 including new headlights and in May 2025 (800 miles ago) it was treated to a service and various maintenance with a bill of £6,282. Offered with an MoT test certificate with no advisories until September 2026, the glass key and service key and original book pack, our vendor describes this as a 10/10 with no faults. One of the most iconic modern-day classics and in glorious Volante form so that you can hear that fabulous V12 over the Bang and Olufsen stereo, this is sure to be a car that appreciates with age…just like the DB5.
