Thought a more light picture hearted topic wouldn’t be a bad thing given recent topics of doom
and gloom.

I have argued Reichman has lost his way. However he has been with the firm an awfully long time So some credit must surely be due. So how many bad eggs has he laid, in your opinion, and how many peaches has he presided over?

As far as my understanding goes, the one 77 was Reichman’s first solo effort at Aston Martin. It also happens to be my favourite of his Aston Martin designs.

Second favourite of his is the Rapide, which arguably wasn’t a tough job given the fact it is a four door facsimile of its VH stablemates. However a finer or cooler looking four door you will not find. Kudos to him there. A true Aston Martin.

In the VS the rest category, one of my all time favourites (a moveable feast naturally) with a Heffernan/Greenly Le Mans taking the nod.

What is your favourite Reichman Aston, and the best of the rest.

Anyhow. To the photos.

I personally think a Vantage which was in essence a mini DBS-S would sell exceptionally well. Of course this would bear strong resemblance to the DB11 and they would be accused of being derivative again.

I’m sure though that wouldn’t actually be a problem. If Vantage was a mini DBS-S I would be working as hard as possible to get into one!
