Q by Aston Martin – wonder where they got that name from?
Aston Martin has revealed a new customisation programme for their cars – Q by Aston Martin – which debuts at Geneva.

2012 Aston Martin V8 Vantage range gets an overhaul
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage range gets an engineering and cosmetic facelift for 2012. Starts at £84,995.
