The DB9 used by Clarkson down to the South of France.

Watched it not so long back and it got me wondering about the car , I just wonder where it ended up , did it appear for sale anywhere ?

Just curious mind .

It was a manual DBS Volante. Lightning Silver with Chancellor Red trim. Now owned by a guy in Birmingham. Purchased from AM Hagley (now gone)

One of only 8 RHD cars in the world.

Take your DBS blinkers off for a second I think the OP means the DB9 to Monaco not the DBSV to Romania

No the OP is asking about the DB9 that was used for the race to the South of France, that's when the DB9 was launched. I liked that episode. The DBS Volante manual was used in another (much more recent episode). Lovely car that one but not the OP's subject I'm afraid.

There's one available if you can get permission from the wife

It must have been one of the early test cars, so probably scrapped.

Press cars are not scrapped but sold to the highest bidding AML dealer.

My main issue was the manual Coupe had started to become it bit common around these parts

The registration number was BX53 BZE, almost certainly an early 2004 car.
