Full Restoration

DB5/1406/R was built on 21 January 1964. A right hand drive UK car.
Supplied by Mill Garages Ltd in County Durham and registered WGR 50. Finished in Goodwood Green and fitted with engine number 400/1390 running on SU carburettors and gearbox number ZF1842.
At some point during its life, the DB5 made its way to continental Europe and in 1988, having just been restored, it was bought from Pierre Guyot in Geneva by Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan. The son of Sir Sultan Mahomed Shah Aga Khan III.
He kept the DB5 for 10 years before selling it to another Swiss based enthusiast. Having then been brought back into the UK, the car was given a full restoration from 2015 to 2016 by Aston Martin specialist Pugsley and Lewis. This included a bare-metal respray in its original shade of Goodwood Green. The matching-numbers six-cylinder engine was rebuilt, too along with the rear axle and the interior was retrimmed using Tan leather and Beige carpet.
More recently, the Aston Martin has been treated to further work at the premises of renowned marque specialist Clayton Classics. Discreet upgrades were cleverly integrated, such a high-output alternator, LED headlamps, electronic ignition and a new twin evaporator air conditioning system that was designed and fitted while retaining as many original components as possible.
This painstakingly restored DB5 would be just at home on display at major concours d’elegance—it was shown at the 2022 London Concours—as it would be fulfilling its original brief of comfortably and quickly covering long distances.
Most recently she has been at the home of R.S. Williams where she has been fully prepared for sale. A beautuful matching numbers DB5 presented in her original and frankly stunning colour of Goodwood Green.
This is a near perfect example with some wonderful upgrades. Q Branch would be impressed.
