Aston Martin DB7 Stratstone Limited Edition (i6)  Coupe and Volante (1999)

 

 

Shortly before the ending of DB7 i6 production in May 1999, Stratstone of Mayfair, the London dealer of Aston Martins commissioned a small series of identical DB7's for their customers. But unlike the previous Stratstone commissioned cars, the GTS/GTS 2, the Stratstone limited edition, the car was built totally by Aston Martin.

In total, 19 were built, 9 coupes and 10 Volantes - all right hand drive and all destined for the UK market. Each car was individually numbered on the sill plates, together with the first owners name.

Particulars of the unique and fully loaded specification of the cars are listed below

  • Special order black coachwork with a light grey interior, piped in black (not 2 tone as seen in the standard DB7)
  • Seats embossed with 'Stratstone of Mayfair', plus embroidered mats
  • mesh grille with chrome surround
  • wheels coloured in a more highly polished silver finish
  • Carbon fibre trim (first time on a DB7)
  • CD player, Heated front screen, plus leather hood cover on the Volante

Customers took delivery of their cars at a special handover ceremony held at Blenheim Palace and were even transported to the venue by especially chartered helicopters.
