RE: 2024 Aston Martin Valour | PH Review

[el romeral]

I think that is the first ever Aston Martin, which I have not liked the look of - especially the rear and the sides.

[boyse7en]

I'm getting strong hints of body-kitted Ford Capri from the front, and Ford Scorpio at the rear.
Neither of these is a good thing.

"In some style, too"?????

Honestly, I give up.

I know........of course.......looks are subjective, but please. This is objectionable on the eyes on so many levels. Are the authors brainwashed by AM-loyalty?

The red bit on the front looks like one of those pranged cars that have an odd body panel from the scrapyard, waiting for a respray when the owner can be bothered (i.e. never).

The slatted rear window is so obviously retro and contrived.
The rear lights look odd.
Wheels are interesting.
Quirk value will be impressive.

Weird one, this, but I suspect I might like it more in the metal.

The original Victor was just so much better looking! Mostly colours, bumpers and skirts but also the rear lights.

Whereas the original is nigh on perfect.

That's a Valour in a different spec. Victor is shown in post above.

They look pretty similar. They obviously have to make it look different for the owner of the Victor. They also toned it down a bit which of course helps it to be cheaper to make.

Love it. Would really like to thrash one down an open b road.
