Ah-ha - £165,000 buys you comedian Steve Coogan's beloved Aston Martin DBS supercar.
The Alan Partridge creator, who is an avid car collector, has owned the four-seater dark blue 1970 Aston Martin DBS V8 since 2011.
This particular example was the original factory press car used to launch the new V8 model. In 1971, it was taken onto the unfinished M4 and tested over a mile, clocking at an impressive average speed of 160mph.
Coogan's Partridge character used to drive a beige Rover 800 which was famously grafittied with 'C*ck P*ss Partridge', and he also bought a Lexus IS300 he fondly referred to as 'the Japanese Mercedes' before driving straight into a bollard.
