The GT8! Carbon fibre bodied £200K 440BHP 7 Speed V8.

Congratulations Tim and good to have you back in the Aston fold. If I was a betting man I would be going for a very nice, and perhaps unique, shade of blue

[Quarterly]

Well done Tim, I watch your videos and had been hoping you'd get back in to Aston. The sound of the exhaust IS amazing!


Interesting you chose 6 gears rather than 7. As I've only got six gears I'm right behind that.

Blue is good. I went for the Frosted Glass Blue in the end

I'm fortunate enough to have gone shotgun with Marek Reichman in GT8 yesterday for a run up the Goodwood Festival of Speed hillclimb, and what an experience it was, you cannot believe the sound of this thing...

Yes it sounds absolutely superb!!

I was very surprised that Marek made no attempt to rev match!!!
I guess he's that used to paddles he's just forgotten what to do

Remember this youtube hero...

Not seen any photos of a flugplatz blue one - do you know if any were made in that colour?

I suspect this isn't actually flugplatz but the light/filter/whatever has made it look quite similar so...



larger version here and there are others of the same car on flickr if you search

Absolutely stunning colour choice

Rob , it was always going to look fantastic so
well done for preserving. Did u manage to avoid an obscene price for the colour scheme ?

Looks fantastic Rob
So pleased you have got to this stage after the hassles you have had and can now enjoy the wait

[vinnie83]

Friend of mine has one coming in white IIRC... looking forward to seeing it!
