Loads of info on this car on Wikipedia. There were several versions. It’s very confusing and needs an Aston Martin spot weld counter to clarify!

I suspect that's not as private as you'd like to believe.

The Aston Martin ad ... http://www.aston-martin.com/2013/02/24/ad-...e-or-real/

not sure how Aston-Martin.com managed NOT to be AM for so long ? surely they would have bought it off whoever was clever enough to get the name registered ?

also ... is the BMW ad real ?

Going slightly off topic ... Seems BMW can’t make up its mind still. They made a quite racy ad and then deleted it.

https://futurism.com/the-byte/bmw-ad-sex-self-driving-cars

Edit: I know everyone is just dying to find the ad to judge its, ahem, aesthetics so here it is https://www.topspeed.com/cars/car-news/bmw...86666.html. Scroll down the page. Nobody should go blind or anything. You see more on Love Island or Big Brother. Really.

You’re all welcome
