Due to popular demand, the unique and desirable V8 Vantage Zagato Mule page has had a make-over with previously unseen photographs

Back it 2003, AML showed us the future of the marque. The AMV8 Vantage was unveiled to the world at the Detroit Motor Show and as we all know, went on to be developed into the popular V8 Vantage which is still in production today. What many people are still unaware of is that the concept was actually built in India by a specialist company based on a 1999 DB7 Vantage Volante compete with V12 engine. We had no idea that the AMV8 Vantage was actually the first V12 Vantage. I have just scanned my negatives from 2003, many of the images have not been seen before.

No car quite captured my imagination as much as this, the 1976 Aston Martin Lagonda – the Car of the Future. Some say the design is dated, kitsch even, but taken in the context of the cars that filled our roads at that time and even now, the drama of seeing a Lagonda on the road even now is unmatched by any other exotic. If Gerry Anderson had still been making Thunderbirds in 1976, you can bet Geoff Tracy and Lady Penelope would be driving a wedge Lagonda.

Often described as the ultimate DB7, the scarce GT model was only available for a year at the end of DB7 production. With the most powerful engine fitted to DB7, only 190 were built making them highly sought after.

The Aston Martin Atom is the important link between the pre and post war era’s of Aston Martin. Another unique car and a star of the Centenary Celebrations of the marque. New page added to the site with many new images.

The original DB7 GT was a sadly stillborn project from 1995 designed by Prodrive. Loads of new photos of both examples of the DB7 i6 GT added this morning.

Here is one of a very tiny number of prototype DB7’s known to have survived. It is the final fully engineered i6 Volante and was owned by TWR until 2001. It is of course highly unusual for a prototype car to have survived and enter private ownership as they are almost always destroyed after they have fulfilled their useful lives.
