Very interesting - bon chance to the new owner!
Funnily enough I went to see DBS 007 when it was for sale last year with an Independent Aston Specialist in London. Had an offer in on it too…
Happier with my V12V, though!
Glad to hear you're happy with your V12V but surprised you passed up DBS 007 considering its huge investment/appreciation potential!!! Funnily enough I went to see DBS 007 when it was for sale last year with an Independent Aston Specialist in London. Had an offer in on it too…

I believe my car was once owned by a w
ker....doesn't mean it's worth anymore to anyone else...unless of course you can find another wker who would pay for it....and the 007 fact even could put off potential buyers....you don't buy these modern Gaydon cars for investment or to make money (177) excluded.....they need to be driven and used....I've now done 50 k in my car so in wkers terms is worth about 2/6d......but do I care?.....

This combined with the 007 number being reserved for Barbara Brocolli, ( Director of Casino Royale), by Bez and the fact that Daniel Craig,James Martin and Brocolli visited the factory in 2005 to hand pick the colour.

I know this car is identical to the other DBS's except for the 007 number actually E000007. However there are a few very rich people who are either avid Bond fans or are looking to add a unique vehicle with a story to their collection. These people are willing to pay ridiculous numbers to get their hands on this car, despite it being almost the same as other DBS's. Despite being extremely cliche the Bond connection does add value!!!!

Don't get me wrong, I'm still rather envious of what you have there, but will always look on it as 'the one that got away'. On the upside I've got 3 bottles of the limited edition Bond Bolly in the fridge, so will just have to look forward to that!
