V12 engine. mated to the well-proven six speed Touchtronic 2.

However, all that is a bit dry when you consider what this car is really about. which is the impressive specification and undoubtedly its head-turningly, bank-robbingly gorgeous looks. Aston’s in-house design department,. “.

Moiré. with an Ivory Rokona lining. T. he ‘cherry on the cake’ however may well be Aston’s Sapphire Crystal glass key. which pleasingly is still present here along with two conventional ignition keys. To call it an ‘Emotional Control Unit’ as Aston did may be a little over the top but it’s a special touch and very satisfying to use. if a little self indulgent. .
Aston’s V-12 is. a. thing of aural beauty. and the. sharp bark on startup and a guttural swell to redline. rapidly becomes addictive. and best listened to with the top down.
