DESCRIPTION

We are delighted to offer for sale this extraordinary 2016 David Brown Speedback GT, a bespoke British grand tourer that effortlessly blends timeless design with modern performance and craftsmanship.

Inspired by the golden age of 1960s motoring and paying clear homage to icons like the Aston Martin DB5 and DB6, the Speedback GT is the result of precision coachbuilding and cutting-edge engineering, hand-assembled in limited numbers by David Brown Automotive in Coventry, England.

This particular example is presented in Ruby Tuesday, complemented by a luxurious Espresso Garrett Leather cabin, accented with rich wood veneers and milled aluminium detailing. Every inch of the interior exudes sophistication and individual craftsmanship, from the hand-trimmed seats to the custom dashboard layout. Behind the classic silhouette lies a thoroughly modern drivetrain: a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 sourced from Jaguar XKR, delivering 503 horsepower through a smooth 6-speed ZF automatic transmission, propelling the car from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds and on to an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph.

While the exterior draws admiration with its sculpted aluminium body panels and retro styling, the Speedback GT is equipped with all the modern conveniences expected in a contemporary luxury car. This includes a discreetly integrated infotainment system with navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, dual-zone climate control, and a high-fidelity audio system. Rear parking camera, keyless entry, and cruise control ensure the car is as practical to drive as it is elegant to behold.

With only a handful of Speedback GTs ever built, this is an exceedingly rare opportunity to own a car that sits firmly at the intersection of automotive art and engineering. This example has been meticulously maintained by a private collector, stored in a climate-controlled facility, and used sparingly. It comes with full documentation, service records, original manuals, and a clean title. 

One of Britain’s finest modern coachbuilt cars — the 2016 David Brown Speedback GT.
