Aston Martin DB4, DB5 & DB6 charts the creation and evolution of the sensational DB models whose Italian looks were more than complemented by their performance. The conception and competition history of the DB4’s legendary Zagato-bodies sports racing GT is covered, and the story of the perhaps the most famous Aston Martin of all – the DB5 that provided transport for 007 James Bond.

Will full details of technical specifications, road tests and driving impressions; advice on buying and restoration, and specially commissioned colour photographs throughout, this book will appear to all classic car enthusiasts.

Those first 1948 cars had 2-litre pushrod engines with just 90bhp, while the last of the DBS models had quad-cam overhead-valve V8s with a displacement of 5.3 litres and...
