Mille Miglia eligibleIntroduced in October 1953, the DB2/4 widened
the already considerable appeal of the DB2 by the simple expedient
of installing two occasional rear seats, the latter being
facilitated by extensive revisions to the car's rear end. As well
as the extra accommodation, there was also room for more luggage,
the latter being accessed via a hatchback rear door.A raised roof
line, one-piece windscreen, larger bumpers and other detail styling
changes further differentiated the new '2+2' from its predecessor.
Otherwise, the DB2/4 remained mechanically much the same as the
DB2, though the Vantage (125bhp) engine became the standard
specification. A total of 565 DB2/4s were produced before the
arrival of the MkII in October 1955, by which time the 3.0-litre
140bhp 'VB6J' engine had been standardized. This magnificent
matching numbers DB2/4 was first registered new in 1955 to Left
Hand Drive 'Export' specification, ordered from new with the
uprated VB6J motor (VB6J/498). She was delivered new to California
and records show 2 owners in the sunshine state one being an Aston
Martin dealership owner. After arriving to Europe the DB2/4 has
enjoyed a nut and bolt restoration and is offered in fantastic
condition throughout. LML/966 presents a rare opportunity to
acquire a truly stunning example of this ground-breaking sports car
of the 1950s.
