Aston Martin DB4GT Continuation : History in the making

The Aston Martin DB4 G.T. is one of the most iconic grand tourers, introduced in 1959 and marking a golden era of GT racing. Driven by legends like Stirling Moss and Jim Clark, it competed against, and often defeated, rivals such as the Ferrari 250 GT and Jaguar E-Type.

This book, written by automotive expert James Page, explores the history of the original DB4 G.T., featuring rare period photographs. It also provides a detailed look at the 25 continuation models recently built by Aston Martin.

Factory-Original Aston Martin DB 4/5/6 : The Originality Guide to All Models Including Db4 GT Zagato, 1958-1971

The first of this fast and elegant car family, the DB4, debuted in 1958 with 240 bhp and a top speed of 140mph. It quickly gained praise from both the press and public, though its high price kept it out of reach for most.

The DB4 range expanded with the 266 bhp Vantage version, the 302 bhp short-chassis DB4 GT (only 75 made), and a convertible. The DB4 GT Zagato, with 314 bhp, was the most powerful and rarest, with only 19 original units, followed by six more made after 1990.

In 1964, the DB5 replaced the DB4, available as a coupé or convertible with a 282 bhp engine or the 314 bhp Vantage version. The final model in the series, the DB6 (1965-70), featured better aerodynamics and 325 bhp in the Vantage form.

These cars remain as rare and exclusive as ever, and their high prices are driven by condition, history, and originality.
James Taylor provides full details of the original specifications and equipment for these models, with in-depth colour photographs of outstanding examples. Every feature, from body panels to the tool kit, is covered.

Aston Martin DB : 70 Years

Aston Martin's sports cars under David Brown's leadership achieved major success, winning the Le Mans 24-hour race and the World Sports Car Championship. They also became iconic through James Bond, particularly the DB5 in "Goldfinger", featuring the famous ejector seat.

Although the DB era ended with Brown's sale of the company in 1972, its legacy remains strong. The DB10 was specially designed for Bond, and the DB11 represents Aston Martin's most advanced model yet. The 'DB' initials continue to define the brand's identity.

This book celebrates 70 years of Aston Martin's legendary DB models, from Le Mans winners to James Bond's famous cars and today's supercars. Featuring over 250 rare and striking images from the Aston Martin Heritage Trust archive, it showcases the evolution of these iconic vehicles.

From the first DB1 to the legendary 1960s DB models and the cutting-edge DB11, this beautifully illustrated book is a tribute to one of the world's most celebrated sports car lineages.
