After being won back in December, Nick Jones enjoyed this special car for around 6 months before the time came for him to let it go. Once we heard this news, we felt that we had no choice but to buy the car back and offer you one more chance of winning it for yourself.

Repairing Our Damaged DB9
May 25, 2023
Our 2005 Aston Martin DB9 has been in the Bridge Classic Cars paintshop recently as the damage it sustained gets repaired.
Once the damaged areas were stripped and repaired, the paintwork in those areas was repaired too. After fully preparing the car and priming it, the previously damaged area was painted and, as you can see from the photos below, our DB9 is already looking like it’s on the way to a full recovery!

Nick Jones was the lucky winner of our 2005 Aston Martin DB9 back in December last year. Since he took delivery of his new car, Nick has clearly been making the most of it, and recently sent us an update on how life as a DB9 owner has been going.
He has had bespoke luggage made for the Aston. It was made by Bagworld in Redditch and Nick is also getting a holdall made up too as there is enough room in the boot for a holdall to sit on top of the cabin bags he had previously made. A personalised number plate has also been added.
Nick told us that he is thoroughly enjoying the car and still can’t believe that it only cost him £15! Now that we have had two double winners, Nick continues to enter in the hope that he might one day be our third!
We love hearing from our winners and it’s always great to hear that they are loving the vehicles they won through Bridge Classic Cars Competitions.
Thank you to Nick for sharing the below images and update with us, we are very happy to see the DB9 is being appreciated and enjoyed as it should.
Delivering Our 2005 Aston Martin DB9 To Its New Owner

We recently took a drive all the way from our Suffolk workshop to Cornwall to deliver our 2005 Aston Martin DB9 to its new owner – Nick Jones.
Nick was the lucky winner randomly selected in our live draw held on Thursday 22nd December 2022. His winning ticket number was 1643.
While we were on the road, we visited a very interesting place called Hawksfield. We enjoyed spending a bit of time here seeing the vintage and classic vehicles in various locations around the facility.

This was Bridge Classic Cars Director, Craig’s personal car and it is a beautiful example of the DB9.
It has recently gone through a pre-delivery inspection with our experienced team of classic car technicians and it is now ready to be won by its new owner.

Back and Better – Refurbished Steering Rack for the 2005 Aston Martin DB9
August 31, 2022
The steering rack from Craig’s 2005 Aston Martin DB9 has arrived back at the Bridge Classic Cars workshop after being refurbished by the amazing team at Re-Go Autoparts.
Re-Go (especially Gary) has been a massive help in the work we have done on the left-hand drive and power steering conversion of our 1970 Bristol 411. So, when Craig’s DB9 developed a power steering issue and leak the team gave them a call. After taking the rack out and sending it down to the Re-Go team, they stripped down the whole unit to find out what the issue was.
Upon inspection, the Re-Go team found a weakness in the material that makes up several seals inside of the power steering rack so when more pressure (more turning lock) was applied, part of the seal would fail and leak. So, they have replaced the seals with a new style and material and then checked/tested the rack before sending it back to the team here to get refitted to the DB9.

August 17, 2022
The 2005 Aston Martin DB9 has been in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop at our Suffolk HQ. The GT car has been up on the ramps to have its steering rack removed.
The power steering on the Aston Martin seems to have failed so it has been removed from the car in order to be inspected and assessed by a local, trusted specialist.
Just Like New – 2005 Aston Martin DB9 Power Steering Pump Refurb
October 29, 2021
Our director, Craig, noticed a slight leak coming from his 2005 Aston Martin DB9 recently. So, the team at Bridge Classic Cars set about looking into it.
Our in-house restoration technicians got the car in and began to check over all the systems and hoses in the engine bay. Soon, it was found to be from the power steering pump. Thankfully, these can be rebuilt/refurbished by specialists so it has been removed and sent off for the work to be done.
Once we have it back, we’ll let you know all about it here on the Bridge Classic Cars blog.
