More pictures will come,….
Thanks again for all the information you shared with me when I had all the difficult questions about the db5r.
I think you're the expert concerning the db5r. Smile

That is nice. Can I be cheeky and ask how much a DB5R would cost.

That sounds about right.....when they first came out in 2008...they were listed up at 18K GBP in the UK....which was only some 1.5k above the price of a standard Db5S...even though there was 4K's worth of upgraded parts and the full carbon bodywork........Usually well looked after...as they are a bit special........Pretty sure Vince bought the one that was for sale in Germany....and theres still 2 used ones in Italy for Sale..up at 11,000 and 13,000 Euros for a 2007 and 2008 models with 7500 and 4500kms respectively.........both have been for sale for some time....up to 2 years for one that I know of...both are the earlier 1000cc models....yet still with the full carbon bodywork, OZ wheels and Ohlins front and rear..........
