Aston Martin DBS Touchtronic (2008) CAR review

Ben Oliver, 29 October 2008 00:01

Not even James Bond has driven the Aston Martin DBS Touchtronic yet. Quantum of Solace is just about to open but Daniel Craig must content himself with the standard manual DBS. We’ve already driven his likely next car: the DBS Touchtronic with an automatic gearbox, a new Bang and Olufsen sound system and gorgeous new optional wheels. Read our full ...

Aston Martin Vantage N24 CAR review

Nick Trott, 21 April 2008 10:09

We at CAR have a soft spot for the Aston Martin Vantage N24. Back in 2006 we sensed there was a story brewing when Aston Martin announced that it would enter a road-legal V8 Vantage in the legendary Nurburgring 24-hour race. We followed Aston to Germany and even mucked in with pitstops during the race weekend, but little did we ...

Aston Martin V8 Vantage N400 CAR review

Tim Pollard, 19 February 2008 10:35

It’s a sign of the times at Gaydon that Aston Martin has produced three new models since it walked away from Ford ownership in 2007.

Aston Martin Vanquish S with Works Service Manual conversion CAR review

Anonymous, 01 March 2007 07:21

Hang on? Isn't the Vanquish about to end production? Yep, but it's going out fighting. First Aston Martin released details of an 'Ultimate' (read 'Final') edition Vanquish S, and now they have announced details of this 'Works Service' manual gearbox conversion. Both cars remind us that the Vanquish is, after all, a cracking car and that the forthcoming DBS is ...

Aston Martin DB9 Sports Pack CAR review

Anonymous, 02 August 2006 09:32

A special edition Aston, I thought that stuff was reserved for run-out Corsas. You've got the wrong end of the stick, the Sports Pack is an option for Aston owners who prefer to zoom than dawdle. The DB9 has always been a great looking car but sadly it’s never been as good to drive as to look at. The ride ...
