| Aston Martin DBS |
I spy a hot set of wheels in Bangalore. Wondering which one?
Aston Martin DBS Volante!
Ever dreamt of zipping through the countryside in your dream
car. Well of course you have - everyone can dream and plus it’s FREE! (Snap)
Let's get back to reality and I'll tell you about the man who defies his age
while he drives around the city in an awesome Aston!
7:30PM and I was still stuck at work! Of all the calls I had
to attend, one lit my face up with a smile that was brighter than a new set of
rims on a sports car! Sharath blurted through the phone: Prajin an Aston Martin
DBS! In no time I ran out of office with my camera, hurling myself as fast as I
could towards the street. Realisation dawned upon me when I saw it: this was my
dream car!
I was standing before a beautiful monster (I guess that's
what Neyo was singing about), whose howl is so loud that you can hear it
crystal clear all the way down the street! If you put a stethoscope on this
beast's chest you will hear the heart of a lion. A 5935cc V12 that can pump
510bhp at 6500rpm and 570Nm of torque @5750rpm. This beast is of the gorgeous
breed - just looking at it will put a silly "I'm-in-love" smile on
your face! Also, it's a cabriolet with an electronically-controlled roof. How
do you move it? Just press the button in the centre console - it's down in 14
seconds. You can do this trick while you drive - just make sure you aren't
racing above 48km/h.
Believe me, once you’re inside the DBS, your blood will start
rushing and all you will want is to press that magical start button called the "Emotion Control
Unit". You can hit a top speed of 307km/h and also zip from 0-100
in just 4.3 seconds (go ahead and gasp - I did)! Let's talk about how it moves
like Jagger. The carmaker has equipped this Aston with Pirelli P-Zero tyres
which have been developed especially for the car. It also has lightweight,
aluminum 20" wheels! We put it on to the weighing scale and find that
it's pretty light. Diet you assume? No it’s thanks to the extensive use of
carbon fiber. The interior boasts carbon fiber, Alcantara leather and stainless
steel and aluminum surfaces. The thrones are stamped with the DBS signature and
feature semi aniline and Alcantara leather.
If you want to live like James Bond - the DBS Volante is your
ticket to it. It has Aston Martin's power, beauty and soul in every inch.
