2008 Aston Martin DBS Coupe Manual in Casino Royale

Description

2008 Aston Martin DBS Coupe Manual in Casino Royale. Stratton Motor Company are delighted to offer for sale on of the most sought after of the DBS models, with the much preferred manual gearbox and the most sought after colour ‘Casino Royale’ paint finish from the James Bond 007 movie. A very rare DBS in this colour and gearbox format with only 53 cars built for the UK market.

This car is quite exceptional, not only because of its very low mileage (15,000 miles from new) but it’s condition and specification, exacting service history and great care of ownership.

Based on the DB9 platform, the DBS was given greater performance and handling by reducing weight and upgrading the power of the superb V12 engine.

Much of the weight loss was down to the use of carbon fibre on the body components, with the wings, doors, bonnet and boot lid all formed in carbon fibre, along with replacing the steel brakes with carbon ceramic discs, making a total weight saving of some 65kg over the standard DB9 Coupe.

Improvements were also made to the aerodynamic capability of the car with the use of wider arches, front splitter and rear lower diffuser.

Under the bonnet further improvements were made to the 6.0 litre V12 with the use of larger inlet ports and other modifications increasing the power output from the standard 450bhp to an incredible 510bhp. The increased power is fed through a manual 6 speed Graziano gearbox to a lower than standard ratio limited slip differential adding to the improved acceleration of 0-60mph in just 4.3 seconds.

A remarkable car in the most desirable combination not to be missed with values holding nice and steady.
