Marek reichmann and his design team have sculpted the one-77 so that it is still instantly recognisably an aston martin, but with hints of a new design language.
The significance of the one-77 name, which won’t be used for production cars, is that aston intends to build no more than 77 cars. The exact number is believed to have been chosen because of ceo ulrich bez’s belief in ‘lucky 7’. Car assembly is likely to be at gaydon, though the v12 engine will come from aston’s dedicated engine facility in cologne.
Aston wants to show the car to potential customers by the end of the year, with the potential for the first production cars to roll out of gaydon by the end of 2009.
