Entering the Nineties, Aston Martin was riding high on a wave of James Bond, with Timothy Dalton having driven a Vantage V8 in The Living Daylights. However, the British automaker’s lineup was looking tired and they needed a fresh offering with a new styling direction. That came in the form of 1994’s DB7, a coupe and convertible that could be had as a cruiser or a bruiser. This 1997 Aston Martin DB7 is the cruiser variant, with the smaller engine and drop-top, but has done just 44,000 miles to get here, and is a fine modern classic Aston Martin to own and drive. The seller reports that there’s a box of records and manuals included with the sale, instilling confidence that this car has indeed been given the required TLC.
Penned by Ian Callum and Keith Helfet, the DB7 was designed as a two door four seat grand tourer with a fixed roof (coupe) or convertible (Volante). This 1997 Aston Martin DB7 is a Volante variant in a shade of burgundy that like fine wine, has aged well with its tan convertible top. The wheels appear to be chrome aftermarket units with burgundy center caps to match the body paintwork. One of the distinctive aspects of the DB7 is the fact that the convertible top does not lie flush when lowered, lending it the name “Pram Top”. While this was jested upon back in the day, it’s something that’s made the side silhouette of the DB7 even more unique now. Let’s venture aboard the four seat cabin that features beige, wood trim, and red leather accents on the steering wheel and shift knob. We say four seat, but the reality is, the rear seats are better suited for children and smaller adults on shorter trips. Tech toys include climate control, electrically adjustable front seats with seat heaters, a radio cassette stereo, power windows, power mirrors and power door locks.
This 1997 Aston Martin DB7 may be the 3.2L six-cylinder cruiser rather than the 12-cylinder bruiser, but a supercharger was mounted on the in-line six at the factory itself, making for a healthy power output of 335hp, augmented by 361lb-ft of torque. That granted a top speed of 150mph, and zero to sixty in just six seconds, admirable figures when you consider that a four-speed automatic gearbox is handling power delivery to the rear wheels. This example has reportedly received a recent oil change.
Scotsman Ian Callum designed the Aston Martin DB7 without cutting corners, quite literally and figuratively. Who is Callum, you ask? He spent more than five decades designing cars and has had a hand in some of the most beautiful creations in history, from HSV to Aston Martin. So when we say the Aston Martin DB7 is classically proportioned and lavishly gorgeous, we have good reason to say so. This archetypal Bond car goes like a torpedo as well. What we have here for sale is a stunning 1998 Aston Martin DB7 Volante, which is Aston-speak for convertible. We were told that it only has a tad over 45,700 miles on its odometer, and it currently resides in North Carolina.
Enjoying a ten-year run from 1994 to 2004, the Aston Martin DB7 was the British brand's most popular model in the Nineties. While the Virage and V8 Vantage were more buttoned-down, the DB7 sported relatively modern styling and could also be had with a stirring V12 engine. This 2002 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage is of the drop-top Volante species and comes with just 50,000 miles on the clock. If it's a fine British grand tourer that you seek, this car fits the bill to a tee.
Ever since the first Aston Martin graced a James Bond film, a DB5 in Goldfinger specifically, the world had become enamored by the British luxury sports manufacturers' work. The DB series of cars from Aston Martin evolved to the DB7 in 1994. It was a magnificent grand tourer from the British manufacturer, which endured until 2004 when the DB9 succeeded it. Interestingly the DB7 was envisioned as a successor to the Jaguar XJS hence the resemblance to same date Jaguars. A 2003 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Volante is up for grabs with just 22,600 miles on the odometer and ready to grace your garage.
