To crank up the feedback levels, a sport-chassis button firms up the ride further.Ĭhanges made for the 2010 model year are a major help. Body control is strong but the chassis is supple. With these on board, the DB9's chassis now breathes as it flows cross-country at high speed, making for highly rewarding and rapid progress. The secrets to this turnaround are the computer-controlled shocks and the computer control map programmed by Aston's engineers. And that's not the description you could apply to the original 2004 Volante. Like a sporty but comfortable luxury 2+2. The car will run from 0 to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds and hit a top speed of 190 mph.
DB9 VOLANTE PLUS
The changes are minimal but highly significant-new infinitely variable Bilstein dampers, plus some minor cosmetic changes to signify the new model year. Described by the vendor as in good working order throughout, this desirable DB9 Volante comes with current MoT, a V5C document, and the aforementioned service records.This is the latest version of Aston's DB9 drop-top, and it's the best yet. Reflecting careful ownership, it has been serviced at the regulation intervals from delivery up to the present day, there being 14 services recorded, the most recent carried out in March 2020 at 47,508 miles. This DB9 Volante is finished in Aston Martin Titanium Silver with Phantom Grey leather interior and has the fully automatic transmission. Its price at launch was £111,000, with the Volante convertible some £14,000 more. Although scheduled for a slightly higher production level than previous Aston Martins, the DB9 remained an exclusive product affordable only by a privileged few. Inside the DB9 one finds the typically elegant, luxurious and supremely comfortable hand crafted interior traditionally associated with Aston Martin, featuring primarily wood and leather trim as well as the latest in modern technology, subtly deployed.

DB9 VOLANTE MANUAL
Transmission options are a six-speed manual or six-speed 'Touchtronic 2' Automatic. The aluminium engine is mounted as far back as possible in the chassis while the transmission/final drive is positioned ahead of the rear axle, resulting in 85% of the car's mass being sited between the axles and a perfect 50/50 front/rear weight distribution. The DB9 is powered by a development of the 5.9-litre, 48-valve, V12 engine found in the DB7 Vantage, which produces 450bhp, an output sufficient to propel the aerodynamic coupé to a top speed of 305km/h (189mph) with 60mph attainable from a standing start in a neck-snapping 4.6 seconds. Although some 25% lighter than that of the DB7, this advanced bodyshell possesses double the structural stiffness. State-of-the-art manufacturing techniques were employed in making the aluminium/composite body, which was robotically assembled using a combination of self-piercing rivets and adhesive. Like its predecessor, the DB9 was styled by Ian Callum, with finishing touches applied by Henrik Fisker. Launched in 2003 as successor to the DB7, the DB9 is historically significant as the first model to be built at Aston Martin's new factory at Gaydon, Warwickshire. Combining Aston Martin's unique character with an uncompromising design philosophy, the DB9 was borne out of a synthesis of traditional craftsmanship, high-tech manufacturing, modern components and use of the finest materials." - Aston Martin. "The Aston Martin DB9 is a thoroughbred sports car with GT levels of comfort and refinement.
