This convertible version of the DB9 coupé represented a new era for Aston Martin, combining traditional British heritage with modern 21st-century technology.

Aston Martin: British excellence since 1913
Founded in 1913 by Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford , Aston Martin has embodied the English art of living in automobiles for over a century. When the DB9 was launched in 2004, the brand was undergoing a renaissance under Ford, which had acquired the company in 1994.
This era marked a decisive turning point for Aston Martin, which benefited from the advanced technologies of the Ford Group while preserving its British soul. The DB9 spearheaded this strategy, demonstrating that the brand could compete with the greatest European luxury car manufacturers. The Gaydon factory, purpose-built for the production of this model, symbolized this renewed ambition for excellence and innovation.
James Bond and the Cinematic Legacy

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
