8 best Aston Martin road cars ever

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Aston Martin has been building cars for over 100 years now, through various owners, various failures, various bankruptcies, the love that remains for the company has kept it constantly coming back to life.
Why? Simply because it has built some extraordinarily beautiful cars over the years, from the first cars to wear the "DB" designation to the incredibly powerful DBS Superleggera of this century. So it's very, very hard to pick a list of the best, but of course we had to have a try.
But, how have we done? Let us know in the comments.

    It’s always subject to comments when someone makes a list of “the best of something” so I won’t go into that, but say that I enjoyed the video and didn’t know about the first car being lost forever. Maybe that would be the barn find to end all barn finds. V8 Vantage S is my personal and attainable favourite.

    Obviously, you missed the DB9. It was the car that made Aston what they are today. You added the DB7 which was named, and rightly so, the Jag in Drag. The DBS wouldn't have existed without the DB9 and with a more uncomfortable ride and spoiled lines for the sake of a few extra horse power, not worthy of a feature of the best ever. Also, you missed the vanquish... There's a school boy error!
