Introduced at the 1965 London Motor Show, the DB6 was the first car introduced following the companies relocation from Feltham to Newport Pagnall.
Designed to be more aerodynamic than the earlier DB 5, which it resembles with the most noticeable differences being its wheelbase, side profile, split front and rear bumpers and rear panels incorporating the Kammback tail rear end. The tail, combined with the relocated rear-axle and the 3.75-inch (95 mm) lengthened wheelbase, provide more stability at high speed.
The option included the Vantage engine of 325bhp, limited slip differential, automatic and power steering (available from 1967)
The DB6 was updated as the DB6 Mk.II for the 21st August 1969 identified by distinct flares on front and rear wheel arches and wider tyres on 1/2" wider wheels. Available as an optional extra for the Mark II was AE Brico electronic fuel-injection combined with the higher compression ratio cylinder head. The Mark II edition shared many parts with the then-new DBS.
Many thanks for a fantabulous
