Buying a 1955 Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I Fixed-Head Coupe

1955 Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I Fixed-Head CoupeThe Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I would be manufactured from 1953 to 1955, and would serve as the replacement for Aston Martin’s first successful post-war production car the classic Aston Martin DB2. As the name suggests, the Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I would now offer occasional seats in the rear. Much rearranging was done to finagle these seats into the car, as the wheelbase remained unchanged. This is also a testament to the amount of room, if any, that rear passengers would have, even with the front seats pushed all the way forward. Nevertheless, buyers loved the 1955 Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I Fixed-Head Coupe (and other model-years). In addition to these body changes, the Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I Fixed-Head Coupe also boasted a new 2.9L version of the Vantage engine. With increased displacement, the Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I was capable of 140hp and a top speed of 120mph. A 2.9L example tested by The Motor in 1954 reported that the Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I accelerated from 0-60mph in just 10.5 seconds. When compared to other 1950’s sports cars, the Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk I was quite fast. In fact, in the realm of performance, on the Jaguar XK120 was close.
