2021 blues? We thought we’d reflect on some of the fun stuff that happened inbetween Covid restrictions and lockdowns last year.

This beautiful set of images has been taken by the talented Rick Noel of Sprite Photography where he had the pleasure of getting up-close and personal with this rather special Aston Martin, Q commission and winner of the future classics class at the prestigious Concours de Elegance at Hampton Court.

Named, the Victor. This unique model which had been designed and built as a one of one commission for a very lucky owner. Think class and sophistication of James Bond combined with heritage, engineering and automotive experience of Victor Gauntlett which is the inspiration behind the unique models name.

Inspired by the classic Aston Martins V8 Vantage of the 1970s and 80s, built on the carbon monocoque chassis from the One-77 and powered by the 7.3 litre V12 engine, boasting an impressive 836bhp but most staggeringly producing 300Nm of downforce at 100mph, more than the Vantage GT4 race car ….. Did I mention it is a road legal car?

Retro styling with a modern twist incorporating carbon, racing seats and the track-style steering column inspired by the Vulcan. All in all we love this beautiful machine and it sets our hearts racing amongst the doom and gloom of the 2021 blues.
