His mother gave it to him for his 21st birthday in 1969. Environmentally conscious Charles has converted it to run on biofuel, although personally I don't think I'd put that stuff into a classic Aston Martin like this (must be worth about £200,000 at least), my dad is a chemical engineer and he says car engines aren't really meant to run on biofuel. |

Registered August 1970, one of only 38 made (including only 9 manuals if this one has a stick) - http://www.astonmartins.com/db4_5_6_s/db6_mark_2_volante.htm . |

Wow, they really made that many with automatic transmissions? I'm surprised. G-Mann -- The same can't be said for biodiesel, though. I think the original diesel engine ran on peanut oil, didn't it? |
