Maybe I'm old but, this generation of Astons appeals so much more than modern cars. An armchair to recline in and a load of grunt from the engine bay. Dials a plenty and no touch screens to frustrate. Utterly gorgeous. Thanks for the video.

I've owned a mid-70's Aston V8 for 20 years now, and the single best upgrade was converting the automatic transmission (which many of them had) to a Tremec 6-speed. It transformed the car from a leisurely boulevard cruiser to serious British muscle. Anyways, 20 years later and the love affair continues unabated. What can I say...These are really awesome cars!

Am I wrong for believing that as we get more and more into EVs the classics market is going to explode? I can’t think of anything new I’d just need to have if I had the money, but I can think of 10 classics I’d gladly splurge on if I had the money.

Yup new cars don’t do it for me, too much technology, the only exception is like a Cayman GT4 RS

Tom I’m surprised you haven’t got one already. I live in Massachusetts and they love AM’s over here. Get one asap and do the resto. Would make great content
@bobk34329 ай бұрын
The 1980 V8 Vantage with that blocked off front grill/rally lights is epic. The recent $1.5billion lottery had me dreaming of a DB4 GT Zagato. Love the old Astons.
@henryhol85389 ай бұрын
This is brilliant! There ìs a Bond theme here. The DB2/4 Mk III spotted paint off having body work done, is actually the only Aston model to feature in the books (in Goldfinger), whilst the DBS features in the film of On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Mate this suits you so well. DBS of this era are definitely overlooked and if sorted can be a very rewarding drive and that rumbling V8 wow. I would still love to see you back in an Aston as I loved your Vantage AMR. Great stuff Tom

I love the blue interior mate, I'd have that in a heart beat. The black resto really is a nice bit of kit, seats look like lounge chairs lol. Could see you rolling up to a cars and coffee with the wife, dogs in the back.

Not in the slightest bit bothered about these cars, still watched the whole thing, ads included. Woof.
@rosewood16 ай бұрын
Superb classic cars. But like any classic you have to recognise that these expensive cars are now well beyond their design life and even the best original car will require significant deconstructive refurbishment just to preserve them. So massive disassembly is essential. And these cars are a composite alloy steel construction which adds another difficult dimension.

You should get one, the lightly modified / modernised black one with tan interior is lovely. Keep up the content on this type of car and the 911 restoration, variety is great and helps broaden your audience.

You've either got a door not shut or a problem with the interior lights as the interior light switch (which is on the bank by the ignition key) is not switched down, but the lights are on.

It's quite an achievement for someone to pull off two such remarkable feats for the same video, which underscores the unmistakable prestige of your channel. If you like it, buy it. Whether it's an old one updated for modernity or one that's identical to the factory model, it will cater to your personal taste. Neither of the choices will be wrong, just as evident by Jay Leno, who readily embraces both
