1959 Aston Martin DB Mark III for Sale in the United Kingdom

This 1959 Aston Martin DB Mark III is a used car showing 24,945 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Penoy Red with a Beige interior. It is a 4-seat car and has had 2 previous owners.

Delivered new in April 1959 through H.W. Motors in Essex, this Mark III keeps its original engine, gearbox and body together, and its Tickford coachwork wears the factory shade of Penoy Red over off-white Connolly hide. Its DBA straight-six left the works with the twin-pipe exhaust that lifts output to a quoted 180 PS, or 133 kW, together with front discs and a hydraulic clutch.

The car has since been taken apart down to the last bolt and rebuilt with parts of the period. A forensic inspection then graded it 1.83 on a scale running from 1 to 5. It is registered in both the United Kingdom and Germany.

The car is located in Tollerton, United Kingdom.

In Ian Fleming's novel Goldfinger, James Bond drives a DB Mark III, the only Bond car of the novels fitted with gadgets. Aston Martin sold 551 from 1957 to 1959, 462 of them hatchbacks and 84 drophead coupés; 83 had left-hand drive.

FAQ

This Aston Martin DB Mark III in the European market

Can this Aston Martin be bought in the United Kingdom and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Tollerton, United Kingdom. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How does the mileage of this Aston Martin compare?

24,945 km recorded, against a median of 7,650 km across the Aston Martin advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Who is selling this Aston Martin DB Mark III, and how does a purchase work?

Kaaimans International, a professional dealer in Tollerton, United Kingdom. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Aston Martin DB Mark III be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Tollerton, United Kingdom, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.

Is this Aston Martin DB Mark III still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Kaaimans International before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the United Kingdom?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.

Where can I see the wider Aston Martin market?

LUSSO publishes a market overview for the DB Mark III, covering current asking prices in Europe, availability by country, why prices differ, how VAT works on a cross-border purchase and what to compare between two cars.
