1952 Aston Martin DB2 Le Mans Lightweight finished in Aston Racing green with beautiful original dark green leather and tartan bucket seats. This car is very well known in Aston circles as it is extremely close in specification to the Aston Martin Team cars that competed at Le Mans in the 1950’s. It has been extensively raced in recent years at The Le Mans Classic and The Royal Automobile Woodcote Trophy Race and is in the process of being made race ready for the next owner. It is fitted with the correct matching numbers 2600cc engine with a steel crankshaft and rods, breathing through correct triple Webber carburettors. It was carefully rebuilt about 20 years ago with alloy bulkhead and alloy inner wings giving a considerable weight saving and has very recently been the subject of a complete repaint with replacement window frames and new perspex to all of the relevant windows. It has the benefit of HTP/FIA papers through to the end of 2026, making it eligible for numerous high profile events. This is an extremely rare opportunity to acquire a very rare and desirable 50’s race car that is already accepted by the organisers of numerous prestigious events. It is of course also eligible for the Mille Miglia. Recently reduced to £225,000
