point in the history of the Newport Pagnell based manufacture. Powered by 420 horsepower
6.0 liter V12 Aston Martin engines, the DB7 Vantage and Vantage
Volante models made their world debuts at the 1999 Geneva Salon and now account

The V8 engine DBS
was introduced in 1967, yet had to wait for two years to receive the all powerful
engine that it had been designed to take. At a stroke, the emergence of the DBS
V8 gave Aston Martin one of, if not the fastest car in the world. A full four seater
with the potential for a genuine 160mph.
The Lagonda was a classic
70's; you either love it or hate it. This quickly followed by the high performance
V8 Vantage - at the time, the fastest car in the world and the first British Supercar.
By the mid 1980's the combination of the Vantage engine and open bodywork gave Aston
Martin the fastest open four seater the world had ever seen, the V8 Vantage Volante.
In 1980, AML demonstrated their engineering skills with the unveiling of the fantastic
gull-winged Bulldog. Only one 200mph machine was constructed, and it remains the
only mid-engined road car Aston Martin have ever built. The limited edition
V8 Vantage Zagato and Volante's were a success; the
Virage was developed.
The V12 engine is
key to maintaining Aston Martin's presence in the lucrative North American
markets. The latest V12 is a 420 horsepower, 48 valve,
all-alloy unit - the first of a totally new generation of advanced technology Aston
Martin power units which are already capable of exceeding the most stringent of
current and projected emission standards. Developed in conjunction with Ford and
Cosworth, it features lightweight alloy castings, twin overhead cams per cylinder
bank, four valves per cylinder and can operate at up to 7000rpm.
