Recent sketchbook paintings I enjoyed making.
Armored Aston Martin Vantage by AddArmor
The Aston has ballistic glass, a blast-resistant hardened steel roof and fuel-tank shield, exhaust shields to prevent foreign objects from being inserted, and electric-shock door handles, according to an AddArmor press release.
The Vantage also rolls on run-flat tires.
Other parts of the car are armored with lighter Kevlar, helping keep the weight of the total armor package to 450 lb, according to AddArmor.
The company said it adjusted the suspension to account for the extra weight, but didn’t mention any upgrades to the AMG-sourced 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8. So Aston’s claimed 3.6-second 0-62 mph time is likely blunted a bit.

I don’t find these cars, they find me. Seriously. Only place I’ve seen a @bugatti Chiron is at the Auto Show or Manhattan Motors. Anyone know this parade of cars?

Back in the day, Aston would never be so crass as to actually state their rated power. ↩
