Chassis: LML/49/4
The fourth DB2 Prototype built and the second powered by the Lagonda six-cylinder engine, this was David Brown's personal car. It was used for demonstrations in 1949 and was also raced by Lance Macklin during the following year. He crashed the car at the Targa Florio and following repairs at the factory it was sold on. Rarely seen since, it has benefited from a complete restoration by the Aston Martin Works Service in 1992. After the restoration, it has prominently featured at Villa d'Este and Pebble Beach, and also starred in Aston Martin's centenary celebrations.
