About the 1957 Aston Martin DB Mark III Saloon

The DB Mark III represents Aston Martin's final evolution of their original post-war DB series before the iconic DB4 arrived. Built from 1957-1959, this elegant grand tourer featured the refined 2.9-liter inline-six producing 162 horsepower, paired with David Brown's improved four-speed gearbox. Only 551 examples were produced, making it considerably rarer than its DB2/4 predecessors. The Mark III introduced disc brakes as standard, a first for Aston Martin, along with a more powerful engine and revised rear axle. Its graceful Touring-influenced bodywork, available in both fixed-head coupe and drophead configurations, epitomizes 1950s British elegance. Today, the DB Mark III occupies a sweet spot in the collector market, offering genuine Aston Martin pedigree and driving experience at a fraction of DB4 prices. Well-preserved examples are increasingly sought after as collectors recognize this model's significance as the bridge between Aston's early post-war efforts and the legendary DB4-6 series.
