I saw this and nearly wept...

it is probable that if you like TVRs you may also quite like Aston Martins. Big, British and a bit OTT in the engine department, just like a TVR. So am I the only one who cringes at this monstrosity?

It's on here (PH) too ! http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyI...

Will reserve jedgement until it's finished
(wonder if they can squeeze the 4.3 V8 from the Vantage in it & make it a 2 seater - they managed to get a V12 in the V8 Vantage after all ! ?)

You're missing the point. This car will let Aston keep making the cars you know and love without succumbing to the EU average emissions laws.

Porsche have bought VW (almost) and Ferrari are going to downsize to turbocharged smaller engines. This is just thinking outside the box, well it's cheaper than buying VW anyway.

ggrrrrr... the EU. god, they get into everything. i think we should forget about them and be a standalone little island again!

Apathy is the enemy, and now our kids have been brainwashed at school into accepting the EU and all its corruption and bullst.

The only time I SHOUT at the TV is when they start talking km per hour on F1 racing.

I do believe our speedos and signposts are in MILES thanks very much.
