Fully updated to feature the Vanquish, 007's steed in die Another Day, here is the story of this elegant survivor of Britain's high-quality, low-volume prestige car market. Robert Edwards, who has owned and restored eight Aston Martins, describes every post-war model. The boook includes technical information, buying advice, driving impressions and sidebars on topics as varied as John Wyer (one of the finest managers to grace a pit lane), the R S Williams Lightweight DB4s and the AMR racers.
Robert Edwards is a highly regarded motoring writer. He has written official biographies of Stirling Moss and Henry Cooper, and his biography Archie and the Listers was named Book of the Year by Classic and Sports Car magazine. He lives in Haywards Heath, West Sussex.
The personalities behind Aston Martin's chequered history - David Brown, Victor Gauntlett, Walter Hayes, as well as the designers, engineers and dedicated craftsmen. A strong sense of continuity, especially in engine, chassis and bodywork design, despite changes of ownership. Model by model, through three generations of the celebrated DB series. The Vantage, Lagonda, Nimrod,Volante, V8 Zagato, Virage and DB7. How the 'V' cars benefitted from Ford funding, research and technical resources. Test driving the GBP140,000 Vanquish and featuring the design chief Ian Callum.
