1968 Aston Martin DB6 Volante for Sale in Germany

Thiesen offers this 1968 Aston Martin DB6 Volante from its Berlin site, finished in light blue metallic over a blue leather interior. The seller describes it as one of only 140 open DB6 cars built under the Volante name, and the odometer reads 37,500 km. It is offered at €575,000 under the German margin scheme, so no VAT is shown or reclaimable.

According to the dealer, the car was delivered new to London in May 1968 and its history is well documented. The current owner had it extensively restored: the body was reworked and repainted, the leather trim, carpets and hood were renewed, and the steering was converted from right-hand to left-hand drive during the work. The engine block had cracked and was replaced by a new block; the original block comes with the car, and the engine is described as freshly rebuilt.

Power steering was fitted at the factory, while air conditioning was added later at the owner's request. The car is located in Berlin, Germany.

Aston Martin built the DB6 from 1965 to 1970 as the successor to the DB5, on a longer wheelbase of 2,583 mm and with a Kamm-style rear. Its 3,996 cc twin-cam straight-six is rated at 286 PS (210 kW) and 370 Nm, sending its power to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox.
