Aston Martin DB4 (Series 4) (1961 - 1962) Superlegera

From September 1961, a number of small changes were introduced to the DB4 so that the AMOC has designated such cars as 'series 4'. The changes were mostly external and make this variant quite easy to identify. The 'egg box' style grille was replaced by a barred type with only seven vertical bars. The air scoop on the bonnet was substantially lowered and lost the grille. Both the lower air scoop and barred type grille lasted until the last variant of the DB6. The much needed oil cooler became a standard feature although amazingly was a delete option.
