I've always liked Chris Harris. A damn good driver, informative and fun to watch, and an all-around likeable guy. I was part of the team at Gaydon that built these GT12's (along with the GT8's and AMR Pro's) and i'd somehow missed this video when it was released, so when I stumbled across it I was really pleased (and somewhat proud) that he enjoyed it. It's just a shame that Matt "I'm an actor, so I must be able to turn my hand to anything" LeBlanc was given the new Vantage to test drive on Top Gear, and not Chris. I think Chris would have given it a more honest, comprehensive and interesting review.

Ehhh... I don't know if I should commend Aston for not just plopping a ZF Tans in the thing and be done with it to get high praise from everyone and their mum like most of the other manufacturers do or if I should slap them for including an outdated single clutch system in a 250k limited edition car as one would expect such a thing to be built to the highest standards. Well, they are all sold out anyway so who am I to judge. :|
@Kaisuke9719 жыл бұрын
Roshan Torcy The gearbox is part of the experience. The Vantage GT12 is a very pure car, and this is, besides a manual (but this does not really represent racing nowadays), the purest and most mechanical form of flappy paddle gearbox you can get.
@Beer_Dad19759 жыл бұрын
Roshan Torcy Might as well let someone who knows what they are doing build the transmission IMO, rather than trying to cobble something together in house - I'm sure it's a fun exercise for the engineers, but they clearly either don't have the resources, or aren't capable of building a competitive transmission. But yeah, it's Aston Martin, they can get away with flaws and still sell out.
@MrRoyalestCrown9 жыл бұрын
Roshan Torcy There maybe limitations regarding the torque, but I don't think it is likely. They would have to reprogram the computer to use the different ratios, etc which might be too great of a hassle instead of modifying a sort of tried and true in house gearbox. Also, keep in mind that Aston Martin is not doing so well money-wise.
@alexpeak169 жыл бұрын
Roshan Torcy The purist in me still thinks this should have a manual gearbox to gain an advantage over the Porsche GT3. My issue is; why do they get these gearboxes so wrong when Ferrari got them so right with the 430 Scuderia and 599 GTO? I remember when you could get conversions to a manual gearbox for an original Vanquish S.
@Beer_Dad19759 жыл бұрын
Alex Peak I think Ferrari outsource most of their gearbox design to Graziano Trasmissioni and Getrag, who know their way around a cog or two. Seriously, it's such a difficult thing to get right unless you have huge resources and a dedicated division working on it, you just aren't going to compete.

From the Vanquish, the DB9, DBR9, DBS, V12 Vantage, Lola AM DBR1-2 LMP1, V12 Vantage GT3, CC-100 to this final GT12. I'm going to miss that engine a lot... Great review Chris.
