Aston Martin DB7 (1999)
In June 1997 Aston Martin unveiled a unique DB7 derivative that had been produced for Alfred Dunhill, the leading British company specialising in men’s clothing and a range of luxury goods including writing implements, lighters, timepieces and fragrances. The car used design cues from many Alfred Dunhill products for the instruments, the interior appointments, various fittings and the exterior finish; in particular, elements of the Millennium range of watches and the AD 2000 pen collection which were being launched later that year. Special platinum metallic paintwork was chosen for the exterior and also for the wheels, the centres of which were inspired by the design of the Dunhill Millennium watch. The interior was upholstered in a contrasting Charcoal Connolly hide piped in silver grey, the traditional Aston Martin walnut veneers being replaced with brushed aluminium panels.
Although the accompanying press release stated that the Alfred Dunhill DB7 was unique model and not for sale, it was announced in December 1997 that production of up to 150 similar examples would begin in 1998, no doubt in response to demands from prospective customers. Two versions were to be offered 'smoking' and 'non smoking' the latter featuring a Dunhill grooming kit instead of the humidor. In the event, whilst a run of 150 may have been planned, AML has said that 78 were actually constructed before the DB7 was discontinued. The current Registrar lists 49 coupes (25 RHD, 24 LHD) and 27 Volantes (12 RHD, 15 LHD). Prices were £89,950 for the saloon and £97,500 for the Volante. Therefore this makes this 1 of 25, it is EXTREMELY collectable and cannot do anything other than appreciate.
The wonderful DB7 Dunhill Edition offered here is numbered 38 and presented in Dunhill Platinum Silver with Charcoal leather interior. With only two previous owners and a recorded mileage of under 26,000, the car is in excellent condition all round. The car benefits from a large history file, service book complete with nine Main Dealer stamps and many sundry invoices detailing additional oil changes and maintenance work. A current MoT until November 2018 with 10 supporting certificates and UK V5C registration. A very collectible example of a model which has been steadily on the rise.
