Not a fan of the 'one-77' in general.

I was never convinced at £1.2m, but after seeing one and the wrap.mmmmm

Zonda, Veyron and original AC Cobra would be my 1,2 and 3

I'm not a big fan of it. Looks like it was designed for the nouveau riche market to me, more money than taste. Hence why it was probably on Gumball.

Also ridiculously expensive for what it is at £1.8m, since it doesn't do anything particularly spectacular. Just another generic supercar. Nice to see a bit 7.3 litre N/A engine being used though.

Very nice indeed.

The was my favourite of the recent designs. The swollen wheel arches gave it a more purposeful and aggressive stance. ten One-77 takes it even further.

Proof, if ever it were needed, that money doesn't buy taste. Even in standard form it tries too hard to be cool and looks like it has had a council estate facelift.

It's wonderful and I'd love to see one.

Just not one with a tasteless wrap and stickers all over it.

I love how it looks, but it's not worth it's price tag.

Not......especially when you look at the competition in the same price range.

I was at the Gumball launch also so saw the One77. Don't think the wrap helped it, but otherwise I'm loving the car.
£1.2 million or whatever it costs may seem a lot, but there seem to be several other cars for similar money that I'd not even pay £200000 for, if I were in a position to buy one.

I wasn't a fan in the pictures but that one spotted in Monaco/Shmee's Gumball spot has changed my mind.

Now I think there alright, although I would still have a Zonda Cinque for same money.

Love it, i quite like the wrap too. Its a bit ott, but i like the whole "look at me" factor of cars like this, like lime green/bright orange lambo's. Sometimes its good to have a crazy colour.

Hi there,

I love the One-77, but then again I love anything Aston Martin do as there cars are stunning.

I was lucky enough to shoot the first production One-77 at Silverstone this time last year as part of the FIA GT weekend.

Like the rear but not the front or sides.

Hot or Not? Not I' say.

I like it, just in a different colour. Was wrap done purely for that event?

The vents under the lights ruin it for me, but other than that it's gorgeous.

This is what the car looked like before the wrap.
