Few cars in history are as inextricably tied to cinema and style as the 1964 Aston Martin DB5. Designed by Carrozzeria Touring in Milan using their patented *Superleggera* (superlight) magnesium-alloy tubing framework, the DB5 defined the golden age of British grand touring.
When Sean Connery drove the Silver Birch DB5 in the 1964 film *Goldfinger*, the car became an instant cultural icon across the globe.
