The one-off Aston Martin DB4GT designed by Bertone will be offered for sale at the 2013 Bonhams auction of Aston Martin and Lagonda motor cars, scheduled for Saturday 18th May at Aston Martin Works in Newport Pagnell, UK.<\/p>\n

The unique Bertone design, which has been fully restored by Aston Martin, will go under the hammer in the manufacturer\u2019s 100th anniversary year, and is expected to fetch between \u00a32.8 million and \u00a33.8 million.<\/p>\n

In 1960 Aston Martin commissioned Bertone to conceive and build a special Gran Turismo version of the DB4GT to be premiered at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show. The finished design was penned by a young Giorgetto Guigiaro, who would go on to become one of the most celebrated automotive designers of our time.<\/p>\n

The final DB4GT to come off the production line, the car was named \u2018The Jet\u2019 and debuted as planned in Geneva alongside Jaguar\u2019s new E-type.<\/p>\n

The car is offered from a deceased estate, and comes to market for the first time in over 25 years. Its late owner owned several other Aston Martins, before falling for \u2018The Jet\u2019 in 1986. He had it restored to Concours condition by the factory, since which time it has won 12 awards including ‘First in Class’ at Pebble Beach and the Hurlingham Club, and ‘Best in Show’ at Villa d’Este.<\/p>\n

Tim Schofield, Director of the UK Motor Car Department, said, \u201cOver the 14 years Bonhams has been holding dedicated Aston Martin auctions in Newport Pagnell we have sold many examples of the marque\u2019s most celebrated models as well as a number of motor cars like this one \u2013 that are completely unique. It gives us great pleasure to offer this important Aston Martin in this most important of years for the factory.\u201d<\/p>\n
