One 77/DBS
Posted by | Under Aston Thursday Jul 16, 2009The big thing at the Aston stands was the teaser model of the One-77 the ultra exclusive 1.2 million pounds supercar that will be limited to a run of, you guessed it right, 77 when it arrives in 2009. The carmaker revealed only the front right and rear left quarters of the car with the rest of the body under wraps. Another attraction was the new DBS. The Bond car now comes with Touchtronic- a six speed ZF automatic gearbox that’s borrowed from the DB9 but substantially beefed up. CEO Ulrich Bez’s confirmed that the V12 Vantage RS would be on sale by summer 2009. He also talked about Lagonda the luxury brand that Aston is reviving. Lagonda’s resuscitation, however, sounds confusing as the brand values of the marque coincide with those of the Aston’s.
