When I was about 10 my dad had one of the three cars they made for James in his shop. I have a bunch of pictures of me and the car at the shop. Today this one sold for 4.1 M

"Octane" magazine has articles in the last two issues on the DB series. What a car!

They were expensive then, but now . . .

Holy cow, who has that kinda money???

I know the stock market is wonky, and you can't hide your cash in Mason jars in the yard, but this pricing is crazy.

I wonder when our LBC pricing will catch up with Aston-Martins?> :crazy:

One writeup I saw noted that the seller had paid -- gulp! -- $12k for the car in 1969, so he just barely turned a profit. :wink:

Memory may be getting slightly inaccurate here, I might be confusing it with something else. But, wasn't the car advertised in R&T classifieds at the time (1969)?
