With VAG, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar and, in the future, Ferrari all leaning towards developing more eco-friendly power-plants for their halo models, particularly with hybrid and turbo charging, does anyone get the feeling that Aston Martin might be left behind and potentially not being around in a few short years time?

Jaguar seem to have the right idea and a long term plan but Aston Martin in my eyes are simply adding a ultra-low emission car to the range to bring down their average while developing another V12 NA car. I'm all for keeping their cars and their engines as they are but sooner or later they will have to change their approach and by the time that comes, will it be too late for them?

I bloody hate the EU tree huggers.
