astonjenks Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 On Saturday I was invited to the launch of teh Aston Martin DB10 which is now only 1 of 3 surviving cars from the original 10 as 7 were written off during filming!I can honestly say I prefer my DBS Casino Royale, however this car certainly makes a sporting statement and due to its exclusivety is a rare thing to see in the flesh!Have a great day guysAJ 1
Raxford Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 Dunno about this one. I love the Volante. I have a savings plan of my own going for one. I should be ready to pull the trigger in 5-10 years to buy it outright. But between just buying a house and most likely having kids in that time, I worry the funds will be eaten up sooner
SSTEEL Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 Dan, 7 written off.! Thanks for you photos mate, good to see one of just a few survivors. Me, the wife, and father-in-law are heading to the cinema on the 30th to see Spectre.
gasebah Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 I think it is nice how they update their models and still you can unmistakably see it is an Aston. Love these cars but admitted to myself a few years ago that I will never own one. Kinda hard to pull that off with two kids, and by the time they are out of the house I am afraid my condition will not allow to crank myself in the low seats. :-)
Ezio Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 Lovely cars so just be honest AJ you probabaly bought The Damn Thing and im pretty sure its your own collection we are Seeing
martijnp Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 Aston Martin, still the dream car for me!
Mike on a bike Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 Own one not unless I hit the lottery! I'm just hoping to take a trip to UK someday so I can ride in Andy's.
fraggle42 Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 Are these a model in their own right? So that Aston Martin had to produce 'x' of them to be crash tested, etc, and then only built 10 to use in the film?I bet the film tickets are a bomb in that case!!
Raxford Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Own one not unless I hit the lottery! I'm just hoping to take a trip to UK someday so I can ride in Andy's. In the US it's not impossible to have one without too many miles and a few years old for the price of a BMW. I mean yes, this one is 10 years old, but there are better deals on cars.com than this.It's when it needs new tires or something under the hood that I get a bit scared.http://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/628915285/overview/ Edited October 13, 2015 by Raxford
astonjenks Posted October 14, 2015 Author Report Posted October 14, 2015 Ezio unfirtunately they are not mine and I only own 1 at the moment! I have owned over 25 and raced Astons as you know for some 15 years and previously won the Aston Championship.The DB10 is effectively a rebodied Aston Martin V8 with a differnet body (uniquely designed for SPECTRE) and interior. Of the remaining 3 cars the first will be kept by AM, the second by EON Films and teh third will be auctioned next year for Charity so start saving :-)Mike and my fellow members when you're in Blighty just say the word !RegardsAJ 1
