What Makes An Aston Martin Car?
What Makes An Aston Martin Car?
Some people love the sound of the V12 engine. Others love the nostalgia and history of the iconic wings on their bonnet. There’s also the power and ballistic quality of these beautiful cars. Aston Martins, no matter how you look at them, are indeed very special vehicles. The name alone is enough to send the hairs up your back tingling. Aston Martin is unmistakably English and exudes sophistication, class and exclusivity with every curve, fineline and handcrafted bolt.
You could take off the badge on the bonnet, and people would still recognize it as an Aston Martin. It’s a great achievement for any car to be instantly recognisable. Wanted. Wanted.
You’ll want to own one of these cars, whether it’s a DB9, DB11 or Vanquish S with its 6.0-litre engine and 201 mph top speed.
Both the DB9 and DB11 have statistics that any supercar owner would be proud to boast. The DB11 has the highest power and efficiency of any DB model produced in the history of the company. The DB11 is available in a coupe version with either a V12 engine of 5.2 litres or a V8 engine of 4.0 litres. The V12 can go from 0-60mph in just 3.9 seconds.
The DB9 has a seductive and elegant look. This understated beauty is graceful and seductive. It has a powerful 6.0-litres engine with a 0-60 time of just 4.5 seconds.
Aston Martin understands that power is not everything, and pays attention to the details. Each model is unique and carries quality throughout.
Aston Martin is all about the human touch. At the Gaydon factory, human skills are valued more than machines. All very British. The process is meticulous and there’s no room for errors.
Don’t let anyone fool you into thinking that this company is stuck in the past. Aston Martin may be a company with a rich heritage, but it is always evolving and moving forward to the latest in design, technology, and craftsmanship.
Aston Martins are built to be driven. It takes 200 hours to build one. Aston Martins are made to be driven. Aston Martins are admired.
