<title><![CDATA[Aston Martin DBS Volante : ASTON STATIONS]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[Car And Driving - The drop-top version of the Aston Martin DBS Volante is a car even 007 would be proud to own. Steve Walker reports.Presumably convertible cars are a big no-no for members of Her Majesty's Secret Service. Having your head exposed to the elements must be a major disadvantage when being pursued by a car load of angry Eastern Europeans with machine guns and rocket launchers, so Aston Martin's most famous customer might not be too enamoured with the DBS Volante. Fortunately, any red-blooded individual without a licence to kill and a cat stroking psychopath making regular attempts on their life, will absolutely love it. Mr Bond can stick with his coupe.Aston Martin has quite a history when it comes to convertible cars, with the DBS Volante being its 16th open-topped effort, joining a range that already included the Vantage Roadster and the DB9 Volante. The DBS is the marque's current flagship and although it shares many common parts with the DB9, it also incorporates a number of modifications designed to provide greater sporting focus. In convertible form, it adds the attraction of open air motoring into the mix but as with the standard DBS, this kind of quality, speed and exclusivity comes at a premium. The engine bay isn't where much of the DBS development budget was spent. The familiar 48-valve 6.0-litre V12 once found in the Vanquish resides here, though it's been enhanced with a smarter bypass system that opens at higher revs to provide additional intake air and a more aggressive exhaust note. There's also a slightly higher compression ratio and reprofiled inlet ports, all of which, Aston claims, gives the car a bit more zip at higher revs. Maximum power is identical in the Coupe and the Volante convertible with 510bhp and torque of 570Nm on tap but Volante owners will need to keep a tight hold on their hats and hair pieces before deploying it with the hood down. The maximum torque of the DBS is produced at 5,750rpm, which sounds quite high but with 85% of that output available from 1,500rpm, the car isn't lacking in muscle. Getting to 60mph is the work of 4.3s and the top speed is 191mph, so this convertible is equipped to live with the top supercars. The standard gearbox is a six-speed manual but customers can opt for the wheel-mounted paddle shifters of the Touchtronic automatic."â€¦there are plenty of people who would kill to own an Aston Martin DBS Volante, and with good reason"The DBS Volante is another effortlessly beautiful car from Aston Martin although some of the DB9's elegance has been lost in the process of making this higher performance model look sufficiently aggressive. The hood is a fabric item which can open in just 14 seconds and is engineered to give the best possible insulation from noise and the elements. It disappears beneath the sculpted rear tonneau cover which features twin humps that hide Aston's ROPS Roll-Over-Protection-System that's comprised of twin metal hoops that deploy to protect occupants in a roll situation. Rigidity, or the loss of it, is always a major problem when removing the roof from a coupe to create a convertible but the DBS was designed with a Volante version in mind from the outset and the drop top car retains 75 per cent of the coupe's chassis stiffness. The car also inherits the neat weight distribution of the DBS by locating its gearbox in the rear to counterbalance the effects of that big V12 that's slung up front. Equipment includes everything you would expect from a car like this: electric memory heated sports seats with ten-way electric adjustment, parking sensors, a trip computer, power-folding mirrors, some gorgeous 20-inch alloys, sat nav and a beautifully finished interior set off by an all-alloy centre console. There's a very sophisticated car alarm and a Tracking device should the worst happen. The stereo is a Bang and Olufsen BeoSound unit, the braking system uses carbon ceramic discs and the suspension is governed by Aston's Adaptive Damping system. It's nothing but the best for the DBS Volante. Of course, a specification like the one of the DBS Volante doesn't come cheap and the £50,000 price differential between this car and the ostensibly similar DB9 Volante will raise questions. With the DBS, Aston Martin is asking customers to pay for a product that takes things a little bit further and at this top end of the automotive market, going a little further can cost a lot. No one buys a car like this and expects it to be cheap to run. Don't expect to average better than around 20mpg even if you do a fair few motorway miles. There's also the irritation that the small fuel tank will make the car seem even thirstier than it is. Insurance of course is up at Group 20. Better news comes in terms of depreciation. Because of the car's exclusivity, expect residual values to be as high, if not higher, than an equivalent Ferrari's. Servicing costs will inevitably be high, as for any supercar of this sort. 007 might be deterred by the prospect of assassins' bullets piercing the fabric hood but there are plenty of people who would kill to own an Aston Martin DBS Volante, and with good reason. It's largely what you would expect from a car that sits at the top of the Aston Martin product range with engineering, luxury, technology and performance coming together under a predictably exclusive price tag.Facts At A Glance CAR: Aston Martin DBS Volante PRICE: £172,500 - on the road [est] INSURANCE GROUP: 20 CO2 EMISSIONS: 388g/km [est] PERFORMANCE: Max Speed 191mph / 0-60mph 4.3s FUEL CONSUMPTION: (urban) 11.7mpg / (extra urban) 24.1mpg / (combined) 17.3mpg [est] STANDARD SAFETY FEATURES: Twin front, window and side airbags, ABS, traction control.

<title><![CDATA[Aston Martin V12 Vantage : ADVANTAGE ASTON]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[Car And Driving - Aston Martin is getting serious with its V12 Vantage. Steve Walker reports.Aston Martin has traditionally trodden a slightly more reserved path than the other elite sports car manufacturers. Its products have tended to be more casino and country house than trendy wine bar and pit garage, retaining their old money class where rivals have chased the demand for ever greater speed, focus and flamboyance. This was always a conscious decision: Aston Martin would remain elegantly aloof from the vulgar high-performance one-upmanship indulged in by rivals but now it appears that the marque's powerbrokers have made another conscious decision - to show the upstarts how it's really done. Introducing the Aston Martin V12 Vantage.Since the sad demise of the Vanquish supercar, Aston Martin was without a real headbanger to worry the performance car elite. The Vantage V12 is designed to change all that. By no means a replacement for the pricey Vanquish, the V12 will provide a challenge to the top echelon of performance sports cars. The Porsche 911 Turbo, Audi's R8 V10, Ferrari's F430, Lamborghini's Gallardo: these are the targets and Aston will need to be bang on its game if it's to score the required bullseye. The V12 moniker leaves nobody in any doubt as to what's packed under the bonnet of this Vantage. The 6.0-litre twelve-cylinder engine sends 510bhp to the rear wheels at 6,500rpm and at 5,750rpm it's making 570Nm of torque. This hints at mind warping acceleration and brutal in-gear grunt. With a 0-60mph time of 4.1s and a 190mph top speed, the Vantage has the raw pace to trouble pretty much anything else on the road. Aston Martin's engineers have taken steps to ensure it can deliver the goods on track too. The engine features a number of modifications over the V12 unit found in the DB9. There's a revised induction system, re-profiled air inlet ports and a bypass air intake port that opens at 5,500rpm. It all works to improve the air-flow around the engine and maximise performance. The Sport button is a feature exclusive to the V12 Vantage and when the road opens up, it should attract a driver's fingers like the fire alarm does a naughty schoolboy's. In normal mode, the throttle response is relaxed and more manageable for everyday driving. Select `Sport' however, and everything becomes more aggressive. Even the exhaust takes on a more purposeful note."â€¦the Aston Martin V12 Vantage has been thoroughly re-engineered to create a car with a very different focus"Many of the fine details of the V12 Vantage have been refined as a result of knowledge gained from running the N24 race car in the gruelling Nurburgring 24hr race. The N24 is a V12-engined version of the V8 Vantage and its emergence immediately set the rumour mills in motion, churning out gossip regarding the possibility of a production version. Now it's here. The classic V8 Vantage shape is instantly recognisable with the long bonnet and the energy stored in those powerful rear haunches but the V12 Vantage rides 15mm lower and proudly bears a cluster of additional air vents on its bonnet to help its mighty engine breathe. Stiffer anti-roll bars help the V12 corner harder, as do the enormous wheels which are 28cm wide at the rear compared to 24cm on the V8 model. They earn their money too; the V12 Vantage can pull up to 1.3g through corners. The process of fitting a V12 engine wasn't without its headaches. It's 100kg heavier than the V8 in the standard Vantage but weight saving measures elsewhere on the car mean that it's only 50kg heavier overall at 1,680kg. Opening the bonnet is like taking the lid off an overstuffed tub of marshmallows. The engine cover seems to bulge out at you with its wholly believable `6.0 V12' logo. Every inch of space seems packed with the machinery of horsepower creation and to get the engine to fit at all, a number of complex modifications needed to be made to the chassis and front suspension of the Vantage. Cooling too was a major concern in development but the bonnet vents, the grille and the absence of an under tray provide enough fresh air to do the job. As you'd imagine, your £140,000 gets you a fairly lavish specification. The standard braking system uses CCM carbon ceramic brake discs, the front versions of which are 398mm in diameter and acted upon by six-piston callipers. There's an advanced DSC stability control system that can be set into Track Mode to allow a certain degree of sideways action or disengaged completely should you feel like letting it all hang out. In the cabin the finishes are a mix of chrome, Alcantara and carbon fibre with the lightweight sports seats being constructed form a carbon fibre and Kevlar mix. The instruments are as beautifully designed as we've come to expect from Aston Martin and customers certainly aren't expected to rough it when it comes to technology. A hard disk satellite navigation system, Bluetooth compatibility, electric seat adjustment and automatic climate control are just some of the mod cons thrown in. The downside to all this capability tends to rear its ugly head when we get on to the subject of running costs but most Vantage V12 buyers won't give two hoots about the 17mpg combined fuel consumption and 388g/km emissions they can expect from this car. It's just the price you pay in this specialist sector of the market. Much more than just a Vantage with a bigger engine, the Aston Martin V12 Vantage has been thoroughly re-engineered to create a car with a very different focus. Aston's traditional cool reserve still lingers in the classy lines of the bodywork and the slick interior but the V12 also has a hard streak of aggression running through it. Aston Martin hasn't really troubled the elite sports car sector in the past but the V12 changes all that and in some style.Facts At A Glance CAR: Aston Martin V12 Vantage PRICE: £140,000 [est] INSURANCE GROUP: 20 [est] CO2 EMISSIONS: 388g/km PERFORMANCE: 0-60mpg 4.1s / top speed 190mph FUEL CONSUMPTION: (Urban) 11.6mpg (Extra Urban) 24.1mpg (Combined) 17.3mpg STANDARD SAFETY FEATURES: DSC stability control, ABS Brakes, Front airbags [est] WILL IT FIT IN YOUR GARAGE?: length/width/heightmm 4380/1865/1241]]></description>
