Is that a Bond Car? Sure is. The Aston Martin V12 Vanquish is 007's motor in the next Bond movie. As I've been driving (well, flooring) it, I guess that makes me a real-life Bond girl. Why is it so special? It does 190mph, there are only 15 in the country, it's hand built, has a luscious Connolly leather interior, a satellite navigation and integral telephone system, enough coat hangers to hook an entire catwalk collection on and Formula 1-style gears - ie no clutch.
No clutch? Sounds a bit techy.
It isn't. Changing gear at the flick of a switch takes 250
milliseconds, avoids serious creasing of your Manolos and preserves
your translucent square-tipped nails. How does it handle? Like a dream. You'll scare small children when you start it up. Once you're off, it'll stick to the road like a fashionista to Bond Street. Can you customise it? Yes. Visit the factory to pick your colour (think Dulux-style colour cards).
What about its pulling power? You'll do more than simply turn heads. Men will be sprinting after you, jaws on the floor., declaring undying love. Milk it, lady, milk it. Who's got one? Playboys. Royalty. Me(well for 24 hours). What's it worth? Think six figures, then double it and add a Valentino couture frock or two. |
