1956 Aston Martin DB2-4 MKII Navigation
This Aston Martin is painted in Old English white over a dark red leather interior and equipped with chrome wire wheels, a black convertible top, and the classic W.O. Bentley-designed straight-six engine. There are small tailfins, wooden veneers and Smiths instruments. It is an original, left-hand drive Aston Martin, and one of less than 200 BD 2/4 MK II models built.

In 2010, this DB 2/4 Mark II was offered for sale at Gooding & Company Auction held in Amelia Island, Florida. The car was estimated to sell for $225,000 - $275,000. As bidding came to a close, bidding had reached $210,000 but was not enough to satisfy the car's reserve. It would leave unsold.
