Overview about this 1964 Aston Martin DB5 for sale

A United Kingdom-supplied DB5, built in October 1963 and despatched to Mill Garages of Sunderland on 17 February 1964. It left the factory in Dubonnet over Dark Grey Connolly VM8483, on Dunlop RS5 tyres, with Girling brakes, triple SU carburettors and an MPH speedometer, registered ‘RJX 1’.

By the mid-1970s it belonged to Kenneth Fiddes in Scotland and had come off the road, where it stayed until it was recommissioned in 1999. The history file follows it across some forty years of keepers and invoices: Scotland through the 1980s, a lockup in Northolt from 1985, then the Netherlands in 2008. John Smith of Wren Classics, latterly Tudor & Black, completed a bare-metal restoration in 2015, with finishing work by JD Classics of Maldon, at which point it was refinished in Silver Birch.

DK Engineering recommissioned it mechanically in October 2019 and sold it to its present custodian the same year. Nicholas Mee & Co have since serviced it, including a carburettor overhaul, in preparation for this sale. It shows 58,400 miles. Right-hand drive, manual, titled in the United Kingdom.

This 1964 Aston Martin DB5 shows 93,986 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Silver Birch, applied at the 2015 restoration.

Equipment includes Triple SU carburettors, Girling brakes, Dunlop RS5 tyres, MPH speedometer, Original registration mark retained.

The price is on request. The car is located in Chorleywood, United Kingdom.

FAQ

This Aston Martin DB5 in the European market

How this car sits against the other Aston Martin DB5 advertised in Europe on 2026, and what to settle before a cross-border purchase.

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

The car is located in Chorleywood, 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?

93,986 km recorded, against a median of 11,275 km across the Aston Martin advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service history and previous owners are not published on LUSSO and should be confirmed with the selling dealer.

Who is selling this Aston Martin DB5, and how does a purchase work?

DK Engineering, a professional dealer in Chorleywood, 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 DB5 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Chorleywood, 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: LUSSO does not publish these and cannot confirm them.

Is this Aston Martin DB5 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 DK Engineering 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 DB5, 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. See the Aston Martin market overview
