How much do we think this is going to fetch then?

The only DB10 to be in private hands.

[Mako V12V]

£2.5M

[Beefmeister]

That was my thinking too.

Must be worth that amount - but will it be the only one in private hands - the press release says "to date". Will others be released? There were 10 of them and think 8 have survived. You would be disappointed if you bought it thinking it was going to be the only one in private hands - and then it wasn't - would that affect your thinking on what you would pay for it.

No word on whether it's actually road legal. I noticed that all of the testing videos that various journo's have produced have either been at Milbrook or the other place in Surrey that Autocar uses (can't recall the name of it).

I'm sure whoever buys it will probably have AM make it road legal however

I still do not like the front view of the DB10.
Consequently I will not be bidding, but hope a huge sum is achieved for charity.

Two photos and for me, no contest.

Both look good I think. Db10 makes the v12v look a tad more classic. Always takes a bit of getting used to when the design language is moved along, but let's face it, it's all eye of the beholder stuff.

V12 Vantage or rebodied V8 Vantage? I know which one I'd take.
DB10 makes a V12 Vantage look like a bargain! Go out and buy one, they aren't many left! Edited to say you'd still have the spare cash to buy a DB5. You see: I'm making sense now!

It is running. It's basically a V8V in a fancy frock.

[DB9VolanteDriver]

If I were Daniel Craig, I'd certainly be buying this car and then drive it now and then.

Even he chose the DB5 over this in Spectre. Says it all, doesn't it.

[JS1500]

I think it's a fantastic looking car - front on is not it's best angle!
Whether 1 or 9 of the cars end up in private hands it'll still be extremely collectable. That said, i'd personally go for something else for £1m+! And a V12V for driving.

[Flugplatz]

I cant see it at 2.5m.

The film was rubbish and the car is not pretty so my guess is 6 figures not 7.

None of that matters. An Aston made exclusively for a Bond film? Will go well into 7 figures.

Just goes to show how varied we are in opinions. I thought the film was really very good and after seeing the DB10 in the flesh it looks stunning ...it will easily fetch 7 figures without a sweat.

With a reserve of £1M few would agree. £1.6M is my guess.

[Beefmeister]

Reserve is £2m.

And it's not a road legal car, barely even drives. No HVAC, no engine or gearbox cooling and limited to 50mph.

Mental.

No it isn't! Guide price, according to Christies is £1m to £1.5m. So how can the reserve be £2m?

Oh and what you say about the car to drive is bks too, according to the auction description. Who's telling porkies here?
