Aston Martin are set to auction one of the two unmodified DB10s that are in existence. The Christie's auction will take place on Feb 18th and will raise money for Medicins sans Frontieres.

The event, billed 'Spectre - The Auction' will coincide with the Digital HD, Blu-ray and DVD release and will include 24 lots in total to go under the hammer.

The DB10 features a 4.7-litre V8 petrol engine, six-speed manual gearbox and has an estimated top speed of around 190 mph. The car features an all carbon fibre exterior and a handmade interior, using fine luxury leathers, carbon fibre and aluminium.

Unfortunately, the car - which was produced specifically - for Spectre, is not road legal, and is purely a collector's item. It has not been through the extensive testing processes used for production cars and was only intended for specially trained drivers under the controlled environments of filming. Pity.
