Aston Martin DB2 - Car classic info and photo

Price: Upon request
Year: 1953
Location: Europe
Chassis N.: LML/50/333
Engine N.: VB6B/50/1167
Colour: Black

We are happy to offer this beautiful 1953 Aston-Martin DB2 Saloon for sale. Delivered new as a U.S. specification LHD model, this car spent most of its life in the U.S. and in Argentina. 
In 2005, the previous owner imported the car from Argentina where a restoration had already been partially completed in order to transform this Aston-Martin DB2 in a classic rally car. The mechanical and body work had already been completed when the work was stopped. 
After entering the previous owner’s collection, the car remained untouched. We purchased the car still in the same condition as it was at the end of the bodywork restoration. The mechanics have been thoroughly checked and are working perfectly. 
The most exciting aspect of this car is that the new owner will be able to personalize entirely what he wants. The color of the upholstery, the presence of a rollcage and even the specifications of the engine can all be made to order, depending on the final use for this Aston-Martin DB2. It can be finished as a concourse condition cruiser or as a safe classic rally car. The cost will of course vary depending on the setup and we can assist you with the supervision on the work. 
This Aston-Martin DB2 is immediately available in France.

Art Cars Trabant P 601 L - Classic car

Price: 25 000 EUR
Year: 1979
Location: Europe
Colour: Multicolor
Interior: Beige
Exceptional Trabant whose bodywork has been entirely transformed by hand by the celebrated French artist Yvon Taillandier. One of the 6 Trabants commissioned to commemorate the fall of the Berlin wall.

The vehicle was then sold at a charity auction and subsequently has been stored under optimal conditions and has remained untouched since then. The artist’s work shows now sign of wear of scratches. We haven’t attempted to start the vehicle as its light enough to be pushed and the brakes work properly. A service to return the vehicle to the road could be planned for limited cost but till now no one has seen the need.

The big advantage of the Trabants consists in their plastic bodywork which is completely impervious to corrosion and hard to recycle. While this was a handicap of the millions which ran on the road of the ex-DDR but is a distinct advantage for the six examples which were hand painted by celebrated contemporary artists. The continued stability of the artwork is thus assured which is unfortunately no the case for many "Art cars" whose bodywork is subject to corrosion of is in polyester which can tend to rot

Available in France with an important file about the vehicle and the artist Yvon Taillandier.
Certainly an interesting investment given the trend of modern artworks to steadily appreciate (to a greater extent than for collectible automobiles).
