Aston Martin One-77 to show at Villa D’Este this week

The new Aston Martin One-77 will show in completed form at Villa D'Este this weekend

The new Aston Martin One-77 will show in completed form at Villa D'Este this weekendFrom rumours that the Aston Martin One-77 had been canned, to confirmation that the first Aston Martin One-77 would be in the flesh at Geneva, the One-77 has created a few stories in the last couple of months. But now Aston Martin have the completed car ready, and are planning on showing it this weekend at Concorso d’Eleganza at the Grand Hotel Villa d’Este on the shores of Lake Como, the same venue as Bugatti are planning on showing at least one of the new Bugatti Veyron L’Edition Centenaires.

For the first time we will be able to see the One-77 with full running gear and a complete interior – just as you would hope. Aston Martin are raising big expectations on the interior (which is a strong point for Aston anyway, so we expect this to be exceptional) by claiming “The interior environment blends the stunning detail of the exterior and draws it inside with incredible meticulousness through the use of exotic materials and hand made parts detailing the quintessence of Aston Martin engineering and design expertise”. Wow!

In case you’ve forgotten, the Aston Martin One-77 is Aston’s Super-Super car, expected to cost £1,000,000 + tax. It will feature a 700bhp V12 offering a 0-60mph time of a little over 3 seconds and a top speed comfortably in excess of 200mph. It will be the most extreme version of everything Aston Martin represent, and without doubt the most expensive car Aston Martin has ever produced.
