The Aston Martin DB2/4 was built from 1953 to 1959.
The Drophead Coupe, the most traded version: The DB2/4 Drophead Coupe represents Aston Martin's elegant evolution from the DB2, introducing genuine four-seat capability without sacrificing the marque's sporting character. Built from 1953-1959, this convertible variant featured David Brown's refined 2.6-liter straight-six engine producing 125-140 horsepower, paired with a four-speed manual transmission. The Drophead's Italian-influenced styling by Frank Feeley created one of the most beautiful open Astons ever produced. With only 102 examples built across both Mark I and Mark II variants, these cars are exceptionally rare today. The Mark II introduced a curved windscreen and revised interior, while both versions offered the quintessential British grand touring experience. Racing pedigree came through Works team entries at Le Mans and other endurance events. Today, pristine examples command significant premiums, with the Drophead being the most coveted body style of the DB2/4 series among collectors who appreciate its perfect blend of performance, luxury, and exclusivity.
