Aston Martin Carbon Saver Single Pages.Pdf EMBRACE THE DARK SIDE THE ULTIMATE GRAND TOURER UNLEASHED Soaring performance, startling dynamics and deeply indulgent luxury come together in the Vanquish to create an extraordinary GT car and the ultimate expression of Aston Martin. The Vanquish Carbon special edition delves deep into its character and subtly but unmistakably accentuates its innate dynamism. The result is a fascinating, sinister aesthetic with a dramatic sense of purpose. Confident and sophisticated, the Vanquish Carbon embraces its darker side. RAW BEAUTY, PURE DRAMA INTRODUCING VANQUISH CARBON BLACK Sculpted from carbon fibre and freed from conventional material restraints, the Vanquish melds elegance and athleticism into a lean, sinuous form that is at once bold and understated. This advanced material from which the Vanquish’s form is cleaved, with a powerful dark aesthetic, heightens its innate tension. From the Gloss Black 20-inch forged alloy wheels to the perfect weave of the exposed carbon fibre roof, the Vanquish Carbon is possessed with extreme drama and a theme of timeless craftsmanship reinvigorated for a new age. DARK FORCES 201 MPH TOP SPEED 3.6 SECONDS 0-60 MPH 568 BHP* EXTREME PERFORMANCE, IMPECCABLE DELIVERY The beating heart of the Vanquish Carbon is the latest version of our iconic 6.0-litre V12 masterpiece. Sophisticated new engine management frees even more power and torque while communicating seamlessly with the new 8-speed Touchtronic III automatic gearbox. The lighter, faster gearbox enhances refinement when required but also executes each gearshift with greater precision when the unfettered savagery of the engine’s ultimate power is summoned. With shifts completed as quick as 130 milliseconds and 568 bhp (576 PS) to draw upon, the Vanquish Carbon Coupe is capable of 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds (0-100 km/h in 3.8 sec) and a breathtaking top speed of 201 mph (324 km/h). * Coupe performance figures PURE ENERGY INTRODUCING CARBON WHITE Infused with the same attitude, created with the same vision and utilising similar design details, the Stratus White paint of Vanquish Carbon White offers a dazzling contrast and stark modernity. The monochrome finish exaggerates the impact of the black mesh grille and the use of carbon fibre for side strakes, roof and mirror caps reveals the inner material technology. Hidden beneath the outer carbon fibre skin is an incredibly strong and rigid aluminium structure. The integrity of this core architecture ensures that the Vanquish Carbon Volante is as responsive, composed and agile as its sibling the Coupe. With precision-tuned new electronically controlled dampers featuring Normal, Sport and Track settings, both versions offer extreme agility coupled to intuitive control. DEVIL IN THE DETAIL THE ULTIMATE GT, THE ULTIMATE MATERIAL Carbon fibre – light, strong and capable of adopting complex forms – is the perfect material for the lithe body of our Ultimate GT. The Vanquish Carbon celebrates this incredible material and its inherent engineering and aesthetic beauty. The deep front carbon fibre splitter, side strakes, mirror caps and roof* are complemented by black grille, bonnet and side strake meshes, black trim around the distinctive glasshouse, zircotec exhaust tailpipes and Gloss Black forged 10-spoke 20-inch alloy wheels. Powerful, menacing and coolly tactile, the Vanquish Carbon concentrates Aston Martin’s dynamic DNA to absolute purity. *Coupe only IMMERSED IN THE DEEP INTERIOR The most authentic, tactile materials, the sweeping elegance of the design and the meticulous hand-crafted attention to detail of Vanquish Carbon’s interior make it unmistakably Aston Martin. Trimmed in the finest Obsidian Black Leather or Pure Black Alcantara® and with a Herringbone carbon fibre facia, the cabin assertively exudes the performance potential and dynamism of the Vanquish. Every detail has been considered, from the black speaker grilles of the Bang & Olufsen audio system to the black rotary dial controls and black gearshift paddles. The machined carbon fibre sill plaques add a stunning design touch that reiterates the hand-crafted luxury synonymous with Aston Martin. Intensely focussed but inherently refined, this space reflects the Vanquish’s unique and compelling breadth of ability. 1 2 3 4 5 STEALTH MODE EVERY DETAIL OF VANQUISH CARBON IS METICULOUSLY FINISHED AND DEVISED TO CREATE A FORCEFUL CHARISMA.

    NEWS RELEASE Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged confirms specification and UK production Full details and specification revealed for limited production thoroughbred celebrating Zagato’s centenary Licenced by Aston Martin, production of the Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged will now take place at R-Reforged’s new UK facility in Warwick Download image gallery here Bespoke automotive manufacturer R-Reforged has announced plans to produce its Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged in-house at its new facility in Warwick. R-Reforged will now hand build the 38 Coupé and Speedster TWINS that celebrate the centenary of the Zagato Atelier (1919-2019) and 60-year long partnership between the Milanese ‘Signature’ and British sports car manufacturer. Offered solely in pairs to just 19 customers (with the majority already sold), the sculpted Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged were created by Zagato and R-Reforged to combine the best of two automotive worlds: a sporting Speedster in its purest form and a timeless Coupé, redefining the 2011 Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato. Each features iconic Zagato design cues synonymous with the Carrozzeria, notably the ‘double bubble’ roof on the Coupé and, exclusively, the 100th anniversary gold Z badging. Now derived from the later V12 Vantage S, the 19 Coupés and 19 Speedsters feature a reworked version of its 5.9 litre 48 valve, naturally aspirated engine to produce 600bhp (85bhp more than the original). Clothed in an all-carbon fibre body, both incorporate an active aero and deployable rear wing to improve stability at high speeds whilst maintaining the clean surfaces and pure lines of the Zagato design.

My son Matthew and I with my first Aston Martin There is an aura about Aston Martin, a heritage far beyond simple statistics. Winning at Le Mans, victory in the World Sportscar Championship, the Zagatos and Royal patronage would be enough for any car manufacturer.

Motor vehicle theft is a growing problem that results in billions of dollars in losses every year. NHTSA has developed this annual guide to provide the law enforcement community with a concise reference tool to help identify passenger motor vehicles that have been exempted from the parts-marking requirements through model year 2014, and also to assist law enforcement in its prosecution and motor vehicle theft prevention efforts. This updated Vehicle Theft Prevention Quick Reference Guide for the Law Enforcement Community provides a quick- reference, comprehensive summary of the vehicles that have been installed with antitheft devices as standard equipment, identifying which vehicles are exempted from the parts-marking requirements, the type of exemption granted (partial or full), and the production years for which the exemptions apply.

The parts-marking requirements have been extended to include • all passenger cars, • all multipurpose passenger vehicles with gross vehicle weight ratings of 6,000 pounds or less, • all light-duty trucks with gross vehicle weight ratings of 6,000 pounds or less determined to be high-theft, and • all low-theft, light-duty trucks with gross vehicle weight ratings of 6,000 pounds or less having a majority of their major parts interchangeable with those of a passenger motor vehicle line subject to the theft prevention standard.

The company name is derived from the name of one of the company's founders, Lionel Martin, and from the Aston Hill speed hillclimb near Aston Clinton in Buckinghamshire From 1994 until 2007 Aston Martin was part of the Ford Motor Company, becoming part of the company's Premier Automotive Group in 2000.

History Foundation Aston Martin was founded in 1913 by Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford. The two had joined forces as Bamford & Martin the previous year to sell cars made by Singer from premises in Callow Street, London where they also serviced GWK and Calthorpe vehicles. Martin raced specials at Aston Hill near Aston Clinton, and the pair decided to make their own vehicles. The first car to be named Aston Martin was created by Martin by fitting a four-cylinder Coventry-Simplex engine to the chassis of a 1908 Isotta-Fraschini.They acquired premises at Henniker Place in Kensington and produced their first car in March 1915.
