Seller's comments about 1965' Aston Martin DB5
The Aston Martin DB5 stands as one of the most celebrated and instantly recognisable British sports cars ever built — a timeless icon of style, craftsmanship, and performance. This particular example, finished in California Sage Green with a Black leather interio, was originally delivered in the elegant Dubonnet Rosso. Supplied new to Dublin, Ireland in 1965, it has remained Irish and European Union registered since new and has been cherished by its current custodian for the past 37 years — a truly remarkable period of long-term ownership.
Unlike many DB5s that have been fully restored to “better than new” condition, this car tells a far more authentic story. It remains largely original, having never required or undergone a major restoration. The result is a beautifully honest example that exudes genuine character and patina — a rare quality in today’s market.
Mechanically, the car is in excellent health and continues to drive and perform exceptionally well, a testament to consistent maintenance and careful use over the decades. The engine, transmission, and chassis feel well-sorted, delivering that unmistakable DB5 blend of refined power and grand touring comfort. This is a car that has always been used, enjoyed, and properly cared for — rather than hidden away or over-restored.
Yes, the chrome shows its age and the paintwork reveals light micro-blistering, but that only adds to its charm. This is a DB5 you can confidently drive and enjoy, rather than keep under a cover. Honest, elegant, and full of character, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the world’s most desirable classics in truly usable and original condition — a genuine driver’s DB5 with an exceptional history and enduring appeal.
