Aston Martin
DB2/4
The DB 2/4 was introduced at the London Motor Show in 1953. The 2/4 was a development of the well received DB2.
The DB2/4 was to overcome the restrictions of a two seater with the addition of two occasional rear seats.
Luggage capacity also increased with access via a third door or tailgate featuring an enlarged rear window. The luggage space can be further enhanced by folding down the rear seats.
At the time, when three door cars were a rarity, this almost justified the comment, attributed to the Bentley Drivers Club, that the car was then the fastest shooting brake in the world.
The DB 2.6 engine is the production version of W.O. Bentley’s last brain child, conceived during the latter part of the second World War. With a capacity of 2,580 c.c. the Vantage engine was fitted as standard equipment.
In 1955 three Aston Martin DB2/4’s were prepared as works entries for the Monte Carlo Rally and won the team prize. Later that year two of the cars went on to compete in the Mille Miglia.
CONDITION EXTERIOR
When driving this Aston Martin, the reactions are fantastic. It seems as everybody becomes a classic car enthusiast as many people show their enthusiasm about the car. This is not strange because the looks are so fabulous.
The chrome is extremely nice even as all the gaps. The Aston is fitted with very nice brand new painted wheels as well as brand new Avon Turbosteel tires. When you look carefully behind the wheels in the wheel arches, one can see that the car is restored on a high level.
