A beautiful 1965 Aston Martin DB5 convertible has been auctioned by Bonhams at the Grand Palais auction in Paris on 5 February, for a record breaking €1,897,500 (Approx. $2,153,146 USD).
‘The European motoring department at Bonhams has witnessed a tremendous start to 2015. The Paris auction has been the most successful to date, with a record-breaking price for the stunning Aston Martin DB5 Convertible, international bidding, some stunning motor cars, and a record breaking total for a motor car auction held by the Bonhams Group in continental Europe. The market is in rude health – we look forward to continuing the trend for record setting motoring auctions as the year progresses.’ – said James Knight, Group Motoring Director at Bonhams.
Only 35 DB5 convertibles were ever made in left-hand drive, making this offering a very rare find. What do you think of? If you had the money, would you buy this rare beauty?
