Buyer’s notes
About the Aston Martin DB9
The DB9, unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2003, opened Aston Martin’s Gaydon factory and was the first car built on its bonded aluminium VH platform. A 450 bhp 5.9-litre V12 drives through a ZF six-speed Touchtronic automatic, with a manual offered too, and a Volante joined the coupé in 2004.
What moves the price
- Early, low-mileage coupés are the configuration collectors look for.
- Condition and history: the DB9 was built in large numbers, so only well-documented cars stand out.
- Gearbox: the conventional automatic avoids the Vanquish’s gearbox worries; manual cars are rarer.
Before you buy, check
- A full service history; the V12 is robust when maintained.
- Accident repairs, which matter more on a bonded aluminium structure than on steel.
- Electrical faults and sensor warnings, common across Gaydon-era cars.
