It appears that the news on the net might well be true. The Cygnet is bereft of life, resting in peace, pushing up the daisies, its metabolic processes are now history, off the twig, kicked the bucket, shuffled off this mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin’ choir invisible.

This image shows the most famous Cygnet of all, belonging to the former Aston Martin works driver, Sir Stirling Moss, parked next to another discontinued model, the One-77.

 With apologies to Monty Python of course

The page featuring the very first V8 Vantage N24 has been updated with plenty of new images. ‘Rose’ as the car is known is still owned by Aston Martin and has been shown extensively during the Centenary Celebrations of the marque.

Loads of new photos of the CC100 Speedster Concept taken at both the design centre at Gaydon and the Centennary Timeline at Kensington Palace, London

The timeline Astons are now being arraigned on the Broadwalk at Kensington Palace. Once in place, they are carefully covered. Once unveiled tomorrow, it will become the greatest gathering of Aston Martins, the world has ever seen.
