The speedster craze was short lived, but it did deliver one of the most dramatic Astons of recent memory 👇

at the car’s launch, he noted that the V12 Speedster “has a much more laid-back power delivery than the rest of the company's sports car range.” That’s partly down to the Speedster featuring a more relaxed chassis setup, and partly due to a retune of the V12 – the same engine ex-CEO Tobias Moers labelled near-undriveable when he first experienced it.

Then, there’s the way it looks. Compared to the timeless Henry Fisker-designed Vantage, the new model was complicated, inelegant and brash. Aston has since tried to sort that out with a reworked front end, but the V12 Speedster was a sign that the company hadn’t completely lost its way. Aston said the design was inspired by the DBR1, which is more obvious in the spec, but there’s a functional elegance to the V12 Speedster that was a welcome return to form for the brand.

Ultimately, the Speedster would serve as a precursor to the new V12 Vantage. Yes, it’s a shame that some of the Speedster’s superior style didn’t carry over, but the plus side is that the V12 Vantage isn’t restrained by a production cap. Just 88 examples of the V12 Speedster were produced, each costing a little over three-quarters of a million quid.

So, onto the car we have here. It goes hard on the DBR1 inspiration, carrying the same Racing Green paint with yellow highlights around the grille, down the flanks and on the separator between the two seats. The interior matches the exterior, with Forest Green seats and dashes of brown leather being the only colour in a sea of carbon fibre goodness. It’s expensive, of course. This one is priced at £949,950, so it’s gone up some 25% over the past year and a bit.
