At the end of the 60s, Aston Martin was intent on expanding its range and adding a sportier car to the DB6. Carrozzeria Touring was consulted for the design but in the end it was William Towns who took care of the styling. Called DB S, the new Aston Martin rested on a chassis that resumed the scheme of the DB6. The engine was placed lower. The rear deck was redesigned. The engine capacity remained unchanged, with 3995cc and a power of 282hp at 5500 rpm. However, a "Vantage" version was also proposed, powered by three Weber 45DCOE carburettors, which developed 395hp, the same power as the DB6 Vantage. Aston Martin also proposed an injection system supplied by AE Brico. Between 1967 and 1972, production of the DB S reached 1193 units. In March 1972, David Brown's initials disappeared soon after his retirement from the company. The DB S continued only with the most powerful version, simply called Vantage and adopting some small aesthetic changes: the large front grille was replaced by a smaller grille.
