Aston Martin MP230 V8 Lagonda Prototype, 1969. When William Towns designed the DBS, he simultaneously worked on both a 2-door and 4-door versions of the same car. The prototype was built as a luxury saloon for the personal use of Aston Martin owner and CEO Sir David Brown. Originally fitted with a prototype 5 litre V8 engine and wire wheels, GKN Alloy wheels (pictured) and a production 5.3 litre V8 were fitted later. The "series production" version of the car was not offered for sale until 1974 and only 7 were made

1970 Aston Martin DBS from The Persuaders driven by Roger Moore.

The most famous Aston Martin DBS is without doubt the one which appeared in the 1970’s British television series The Persuaders. Although it appears to be a V8, the car featured in the series was in fact a straight 6 equipped with DBS V8 alloy wheels. Chassis number DBS/5636/R, was registered as BS 1 (although in real life PPP 6H) and was painted in Bahama Yellow.

This DBS in the hands of Lord Brett Sinclair, was without doubt one of the stars of the series, opposite the DINO 246 GT driven by mischievous American Danny Wilde. The series was broadcast in Britain on ITV from 17th September 1971 to 25th February 1972, and in France from 3rd October 1972 on the ORTF’s second channel. It soon became a major hit. Unfortunately The Persuaders came to an end after only one season and a total of 24 episodes which are now considered cult TV. The "Bahama Yellow" DBS is fondly remembered by many, and several 6 cylinder and V8 DBS’s have been painted in the same colour by car owners who are also fans of the series.

Between April 1994 and Autumn 1997, the original DBS driven by Roger Moore was totally restored by Aston Works Service in Newport Pagnell and both Roger Moore at Pinewood Studios in 2003 and Tony Curtis at the Cheltenham Literature Festival in 2008 (two years before he died in 2010) signed the interior of the boot lid. DBS/5636/R is now owned by Ed Stratton who maintains the car with care but does not hesitate to drive it as often as he can, for the greater pleasure of the series fans.

Aston Martin DB10 

It might not be a production model (ten units of the DB 10 were manufactured for the film “Spectre” and only one of the lals was auctioned), but rest assured the DB10 is a sure-fire window into the future design language that will serve as a blueprint for the next generation of Aston Martin’s road cars.They built the car in a staggering six months – usually it takes several years to design and build a new car. Its underpinnings are V8 Vantage S, but the DB10 is slightly longer and gets a much wider track.One look at those flared-out hips sitting on extra-wide Pirelli 305s (almost as wide as Aston’s One-77 hypercar) and you instantly recognise this as something entirely different to the current Vantage.

Like the DB5, there’s a natural simplicity to the DB10’s shape that is its most captivating feature. It’s staggeringly beautiful from any angle, with that rare combination of macho and elegance in equal measure – something Aston Martin’s designers have been realising for decades, despite critical ups and downs along the way. The shut lines have been reduced to a bare minimum and the clamshell bonnet seems to go on forever, as if the entire carbon-fibre body is one seamless form.The bonnet vents are special too – just a series of perfectly machined holes, rather than the usual two-piece unit, and only visible to the eye up close. Engineers used heat mapping in order to position the holes for the maximum cooling effect. Under the bonnet is the same naturally aspirated 4.7-litre V8 from the Aston Martin V8 Vantage S, so it sounds extra angry due to the removal of much of the sound-deadening material.
