Aston Martin Special

In an amazing scoop, we get to grips with the three new models set to shake up the supercar elite in 2010

Aston Special

Get ready for a hat-trick of heroes from Aston Martin! The famous British manufacturer wants 2010 to be its most successful year yet, and Auto Express has been granted an exclusive audience with the three cars set to take the firm to new heights.

The next 12 months see the introduction of the Rapide four-door, as well as the amazing £1.2million One-77, while an updated version of the V8 Vantage will break cover, too. In a world first, we’ve brought together this star trio for an exclusive photoshoot. We even got the chance to fire up the 750bhp One-77 - and to speak to the brains behind this extraordinary car, Chris Porritt.

But that’s not all.

For any Aston fan, this promises to be a vintage year – so read on to find out all the details that matter on the firm’s star line-up.
