Aston Martin to lead the way at Salon Prive

The 800-plus bhp, all-carbon fibre, Aston Martin Vulcan is powered by the most potent iteration yet of the company’s naturally-aspirated, 7.0-litre V12 petrol engine and is predicted to be capable of sprinting from rest to 60 mph in less than three seconds, and achieving a top speed of more than 200mph.

Even more exclusive, in terms of its production numbers at least, is the DB10 sports car which will feature in the forthcoming Bond movie, Spectre. The car has been developed specifically for the film and just ten examples have been built. The design team worked closely with the film’s director, Sam Mendes, to create the ultimate car for the world’s most famous spy.

Celebrating the brand’s half century association with Bond, which started with the iconic DB5, the DB10 also gives a glimpse to the future design direction for the next generation of Aston Martins.

Competing with its exclusive siblings for the ‘star of the show’ crown in September will be the Aston Martin DBX Concept. The DBX Concept was conceived to defy conventional thinking about the luxury GT segment. Widening the appeal of the iconic British luxury brand, the DBX reaches out to a more diverse global audience than ever before.

Alongside Aston Martin’s rare and exclusive small series cars and concepts at Blenheim Palace will be a generous selection of the brand’s mainstream models, including the Vanquish ultimate GT, extreme V12 Vantage S and the recently-unveiled DB9 GT.

Also making an appearance will be an example of Aston Martin’s most extreme Vantage to date, the sold-out Vantage GT12, and the unique GREAT Britain Aston Martin Rapide S.
