Landrover chasis, XJS engine, JCB Gearbox, XR2 Steering Wheel and Austin Princess suspension, or is this one modern?

Like everything except the side strake starting in the fender. Would like a little separation. Like the thinner lights on the back. It is an evolution and not a revolution thankfully.

Love it! Although I was hoping for less similarities to all the others at the front. Really like the back ant the silver side things!

Looks a bit fussy but I'll have to see it in the metal before I can really judge.

I think it will date quite badly, all those lines will impact it in the future. For me it's a bit of a mishmash of design cues, not convinced.

Really glad they made the eyes bigger - the DB10 was very minimalist dogfish! Rear and nose are lovely. I really like the way the hatchback aligns smoothly with the roofline on my Aston - this one has a lip - and the side strake so close to the wheelarch is a bit different. Cant wait to see it in the flesh. 'Ow much?

mmm...looks pretty good, but as near perfect as some of the earlier cars. Some lines on the sides im not sure about or the two tone paint in those photos.

I like it, even the buttresses, it's an evolution that still looks classy but with modern features. I think they have judged it well

I agree, there is a lot of lines going on, and it's not altogether.

Need to see it in the metal to make a final judgment.

It's OK. Need to see it in person to make a final judgement, but it may be a design that needs to grow on you, rather like Vanquish 2. Don't particularly like the side vent location, but I suspect this is the only way to implement the clamshell split line. Wheels are a def no go, but those are easily changed (never liked spoke patterns that don't go thru the wheel center). Also, looks like the wheels are left and right specific, so you can have forward or backward leaning spokes.

Not a fan of the two tone color, and the rear of the car. I do like the from and the side.

Looks like Top Speed had the design nicely picked in advance, except the wheels.
