Aston Martin Virage (2011) CAR review

Aston Martin Virage (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Jethro Bovingdon, 14 March 2011 12:00

This is a new Aston Martin and it revives the Virage name. Fortunately it looks nothing like the old Virage, but some will be disappointed that it looks very much the DB9 on which it’s based (which means it also looks quite a lot like the rest of Aston’s range). So what is it? Well, it neatly plugs the gap ...

Aston Martin DB9 Coupé (2011 model year) CAR review

Aston Martin DB9 Coupé (2011 model year) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 17 June 2010 07:30

You might have seen elsewhere that CAR was embedded in the Aston Martin pit team at the weekend's 2010 Le Mans 24-hour race. Which meant we were well placed to pilfer one of the facelifted DB9s on display at the Aston customer hospitality unit at the French race circuit and drive it back to Blighty.A 'facelifted' 2010 Aston Martin DB9? ...

Aston Martin V12 Vantage (2009) CAR review

Aston Martin V12 Vantage (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 20 May 2009 00:01

This is the new Aston Martin V12 Vantage, and it has the potential to be one of the company’s greatest cars to enter its hardly shabby history books. The recipe is simple: take your smallest and lightest chassis and shoehorn into it (to the accompaniment of some polite British swearing) your biggest and most powerful engine. In this case, the ...

Aston Martin DBS Touchtronic (2008) CAR review

Aston Martin DBS Touchtronic (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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 DBS (2008) CAR review

Aston Martin DBS (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 19 October 2007 12:01

I know Bond drove it last year but what’s all the fuss about? It’s a DB9 with a bodykit isn’t it? Steady on. The DBS is certainly based on the DB9 but then so is the DBR9 racer that won the GT1 class at Le Mans in 2007. And you wouldn’t find anyone kicking sand in its face. Aston says ...

Aston Martin DB9 Sports Pack (2006) CAR review

Aston Martin DB9 Sports Pack (2006) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 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 ...
