1965 Aston Martin DB6 Brochure
The 1965 DB6 arrived with a 282 bhp inline six-cylinder displacing just under four litres, mounted longitudinally to drive the rear wheels through a five-speed ZF gearbox. This powertrain choice separated it decisively from competitors relying on smaller engines or automatic transmissions. The new split-bumper design improved aerodynamic stability at speed, a practical refineme
1966 Aston Martin DB6 Brochure
When the DB6 arrived in 1966, it faced formidable rivals: the Ferrari 275 GTB, the Jaguar E-Type Series I, and the Lamborghini 400 GT. Against this field, Aston Martin's new offering delivered the same 282 horsepower as its DB5 predecessor but wrapped it in refined bodywork with a distinctive Kamm tail that set it apart. Buyers seeking understated British elegance over flashy I
1969 Aston Martin DB6 Brochure
By 1969, the DB6 had established itself across British and European markets as the refined alternative to the rawer Ferrari 330 and the increasingly common Jaguar E-Type.

Frequently asked questions
How many original documents does the Aston Martin DB6 archive contain?
The DB6 archive holds three original documents spanning the car's production run. These include factory literature, dealer materials, and period promotional content. Each document offers a window into how Aston Martin presented this iconic grand tourer to the market during its active years.
What years are covered in the DB6 archive, and are there any gaps?
Documents in the collection date from 1965 through 1969, covering the full production span of the original DB6 generation. The archive provides continuous representation across these years, capturing the model from its debut through the final examples produced before the DB6S variant emerged.
Can I use these documents for DB6 restoration work?
Yes. Original factory literature, dealer catalogs, and specification sheets are invaluable for restoration projects. They document original finishes, trim options, equipment configurations, and period-correct details that restorers rely on to return cars to authentic condition. These sources establish what was actually available when your car was built.
Does the archive include documents from different markets?
The collection represents two distinct markets. This means you'll find regional variations in specifications, equipment offerings, and marketing approaches between different territories where the DB6 was sold. Market-specific documents reveal how Aston Martin adapted the car for different customer bases and regulatory environments.
How does this archive page differ from the DB6 catalog page?
The archive page focuses on the original documents themselves as historical artifacts. The catalog page, by contrast, details the car's mechanical specifications, design features, and performance characteristics. This page is about what we have on file; the catalog page is about the vehicle itself.
Is the DB6 collection updated regularly with new documents?
The archive grows as new original materials surface and are authenticated. We continuously seek undocumented literature from collectors, dealers, and estates. If you've discovered DB6 materials that aren't represented here, we welcome submissions for evaluation and potential inclusion in the collection.
