DP114/2 otherwise became known as the Walls Ice Cream Van because of it’s original white and blue colour scheme. The car was sidelined in 1957 after a decision to base the Mark III replacement on the Touring designed DB4 and David Brown purchased the car from his company to be used by his wife as her personal transport until 1962. Eventually, the car was bought back by Aston Martin in 1989 and was entrusted to Works Service so that it could be rebuilt to become a showpiece for the department.
