There are some clues which indicate this is probably a black, left hand drive car, owned by Aston Martin Lagonda.

Reason - the DVLA vehicle details do not reveal;

Engine cylinder capacity
CO2 emissions
Fuel type
Vehicle type approval
Revenue weight

I have noticed this now seems to be routine with development vehicles, where presumably the manufactures do not want such information to be openly divulged.
Probably car manufacturers have an agreement with the DVLA, because this information is normally always shown.

When the DB11 was being tested before launch, we could see that the cars had 5.2 litre engines prior to the official announcement, but later on there has been a change in the amount of information revealed.

After thoroughly checking the gravel (I like Cotswold gravel), if you do look at the car, you will notice how carefully the camera has been positioned.

Anyone who says the headlights are too small - the nearest headlight is now fairly large.

Anyone who says the front grille is too large - now much smaller.

Problems solved. You can place your orders.

It does add some interest to the large expanse of bonnet

Couple of carbon vents might work better
