Today was the ‘Simply Aston Martin’ event at the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu. Owners of cars that wore the iconic badge, were able to display their vehicles for everyone to see. I was fortunate enough to attend and marvel over some of the most desirable cars ever made.
1. Aston Martin Vantage
First on my list is the new baby Aston, a true modern sports car. Under the bonnet is a twin-turbo charged AMG V8 with over 500bhp that’s bound to wake the neighbours in the morning, and that’s in addition to an almost 50/50 weight distribution due to the engine being mounted just in front of the driver. On paper the Vantage already sounds both fun and fast so hopefully it will be able to carry on and improve upon the previous car’s epic legacy.
