This is a special edition of the ‘Something For The Weekend’ series that I run – in that I’ve found the above picture of the Aston Martin DBS Volante (the convertible version of the classy DBS) and I thought I’d share it with you all. The DBS is a great looking car but make it [...]

Aston Martin’s mighty new four door sports car – the Rapide – will be driven hard at the Nürburgring Nordschleife for the 38th ADAC Zurich 24 hour Race on 15th and 16th of May. I must say, I’d love to be there to see it in action! Last year, the V12 Vantage managed a place [...]

This is not just any car – this is the Aston Martin Rapide. Could you think of anything more wonderful to be blasting along the countryside in? Granted, it may not be made in England (it’s actually built in Austria), but the history, lineage, performance and beauty is all there. Or perhaps the ‘Power, Beauty, [...]

The Aston Martin One-77 In Action

March 10, 2010

Few can suggest that there’s a much more exclusive supercar out there – or is it a hypercar? The elusive Aston Martin One-77 will be produced in exactly the numbers that the name suggests and comes with a price tag that tops £1,000,000. Crazy when you read all those zeros.

In the least likely turn of motoring manufacturing you’ll ever see, Auto Express has the scoop on Aston Martin’s Cygnet monster small city car.

October 29, 2009

Yes, that’s probably the longest title on the blog, but the above is also one of the best supertests I’ve ever seen. Great job done by Autocar on this one and I must say that I’m extremely jealous. Perhaps most impressive is the sheer monstrous performance of the Bugatti Veyron. It makes even the mighty [...]

The Aston Martin Lagonda Concept

April 12, 2009

The Lagonda name is actually a 100 year old car marque – last brought forth from 1976 to 1991 as a massive, hugely sophisticated saloon.  Unreliable, massive and thirsty, the Lagonda wasn’t a huge success, yet because of the unique nature of the car it remains to have some fans to this day. The new [...]

The Third Aston Martin One-77 Video

March 24, 2009

The third Aston Martin One-77 video is now available and is well worth a watch.  I’m still not sure whether I like the looks (boggly front eye lights, a hugely overlong front end), but then it wouldn’t be the first supercar that either a) divides opinion or b) looks far better in the flesh than [...]
