Chassis no. DB4GT0190L, Engine No. 3700190GT. Shell Grey over dark green leather. 4.2, three 45DCOE-9 Weber carburetors, 4-speed, silver Borrani wire wheels, Michelin Pilote X tires, glass door windows, woodrim steering wheel, dual Scintilla magnetos, tool kit, original 15-inch chrome wire wheels and Zagato-style seats included.

Evaluation: One of six lefthand drive DB4GT Zagatos. Represented as the original engine. Excellent paint, barely used upholstery, bright chrome. Spotless engine compartment, underbody and chassis. Known history from new. Paul Andrews estate.

Bottom Line: Sold by Brooks at Goodwood in 1998 for $1,121,597 (£688,100), then by RM at Arizona in 2005 for $2,695,000. The odometer has added 3854 miles since then but the car is, if anything, even better after Paul Andrews ownership. The price certainly is better, but this is a rare and precious creature even, the crown jewel of Paul Andrews’ collection. It would be a crown jewel of any collection.
