Aston Martin One-77


Sneaky Paris reveal gives us a hint of what Aston has in store

We've already seen murky pictures of the million pound Aston Martin, but now the company is wheeling out the real thing - albeit with an inconvenient sheet across most of it.

This is our first glimpse at the One-77, although the idea is that those wealthy enough to buy one will be able to tweak and specify a lot of the car themselves - meaning the slight bits of car we see here may not be standard items, or they could be the base that customers have to work with.

It has also been confirmed the One-77 has a sophisticated carbon fibre chassis, handcrafted aluminium body and a stonking 7.3-litre V12 under the bonnet. 'Exhilarating performance' is promised by Aston in 'the ultimate creative interpretation of the renowned British marque'. Consider us teased. Are you? And would you splash out the best part of a big lottery win solely on a car? Wing your way to the forum and reveal all.
