Chassis DB4/339/L is a July 1960 Aston Martin DB4 Series II, one of 349 examples of that specification built at Newport Pagnell. Bodied by Carrozzeria Touring of Milan using the Superleggera method, it combines a twin-cam 3.7-litre straight-six with four-wheel disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. Delivered new in Desert White to a Swiss physician, the car appears to have remained in Switzerland until the late 1990s before being exported to Italy, where it has been kept by the same family for over two decades. It is currently finished in Silver Birch.
