Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster - 2006 Los Angeles Auto Show

Damn that thing looks sexy! Mr Bond, I insist, this is the perfect vehicle for you. Ok, it may lack the German perfectionism of your previous BMW’s but its British um, well not exactly but it’s made in the UK, and it does hide a 380 Hp V8 under its orgasmically styled front end. That’s good enough to take you from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,0 sec and if your in a hurry for your afternoon tea, you can take it up to 280 km/h, though I highly doubt that you’ll make it over 140 km/h without being caught by the boys in blue.

Even in that case though, I believe you can seduce them by opening the top with the press of a button located on the centre console revealing the elegantly styled interior. Mind you, it’ll only take a mere 18 seconds.

Interested? Well, although deliveries of the V8 Vantage Roadster are expected to commence during quarter two 2007, with prices to be confirmed at a later date, you can get a first view of the car at the 2006 Los Angeles Auto Show on Wednesday 29th November.
