Aston Martin DB9 Hire

The Aston Martin DB9 is a gorgeous looking car and would turn heads anywhere on any social occasion. It screams sophistication, style and a certain British elegance. It combines a sleek, stylish design synonymous with Aston Martins with a modern look that has brought it into the 21st century, combined with an extremely powerful engine. It runs on a six litre V12 engine which results in an unchanged torque, has a choice of six different speeds and can reach an amazing 190 miles per hour. It also comes with the choice of jet black diamond shaped wheels. It is this power and style that is one of the best know features of AM cars, which have strongly become associated with James Bond and British style and craftmanship.

The new and improved DB9 has some major differences compared to the older DB8, whilst still maintaining its core strengths. This change in appearance merely enhances was good about the DB8 and enhances it. The headlights, sills and breaks have also changed. These minor levels of change have of course added to increased comfort for the user as well as being necessary to keep up in today's ever increasingly competitive automobile market. Being such a luxury and sought after car they are not cheap. The range from anything from tens of thousands of dollars second hand to hundreds of thousands of dollars for brand new versions. Most commonly AM's are associated with James Bond and it's the car most commonly used in his movies. Typically it used the lightest, most modern cutting edge materials whilst maintaining the contours and extravagances of previous designs. Like all AM's it is at the cutting edge of design and craftmanships, designed to be functional and classy, yet remaining true to the company's ideals and original vision. The 2009 version comes in both a volante and coupe version to suit different tastes.

One of the most popular reasons to hire this car has been for weddings and civil partnerships. As most will recognise, the kind of car one uses at one's wedding has become and integral, core part of the whole ceremony. The DB9's style and sophistication has seen it becoming more and more popular in recent years, especially in the UK where it is not often seen at wedding ceremonies almost as much as Rolls Royces and such traditional cars. Perhaps it is the fact that is appeals to both men and women that makes it so popular, whilst sporty and powerful it also has somewhat effeminate stylish features too.

The combination of a thrilling car to drive and something that catches the eye in a subtle, stylish way seems to be the perfect recipe for a winner. For such purposes it is usually hired by the day or the hour and usually runs into several hundred dollars. A large deposit will naturally be required before one is allowed to part with this majestic beauty. This is certainly not a typical soulless sports car.

As with the hiring of any kind of luxury car one would strongly be advised to take out insurance with it and directly meet with its vendors and check out the fine details of the contracts before anything is signed and paid for.

The Aston Martin DB9 is a wonderfully exhilarating car and is ideal for hiring.

If you would like to find out more information on how to hire the DB9 feel free to visit Aston Martin DB9 Hire or contact me, Stephen personally.

Aston Martin DB4 - The Legendary Sports Car

The Aston Martin DB4 arrived in 1958 and represented the finest contemporary interpretation of the Gran Turismo theme. A magnificent synthesis of the talents at the firm's Feltham works and the Italian Touring styling house, the DB4 was, during its five years of production, the best selling model which paved the way for the even more successful Aston Martin DB5 & DB6 succeeding models.

The story of the DB4's development really began in 1950 when John Wyer started at the Feltham works as competitions manager moving from his post as managing director of sports-car specialists Monaco Engineering. Another 1950 recruit was design draftsmen Harold Beach, whose previous career had included spells at the Barker Coach building Company and Garner Strausler Mechanization, who built commercial vehicles as well as ancillary equipment.

It was in 1964 that Beach began working on a DB2 series replacement, which was to be titled "DB4", the DB3 being one of the firm's sports racers. Known as Project 114 it had a perimeter chassis frame with a sophisticated (for its time) de Dion rear axle employing parallel trailing links, the lower ones connected to laminated torsion bars. At the front end of the car Beach introduced wishbone and coil independent front suspension where the DB2 by contrast had a trailing arm system. A 3-Liter version of the then current twin-cam six was employed and Frank Feely designed a traditional suitable closed body, not dissimilar to that of the DB2.

Significant changes were made to the specifications in 1956 with the appointment of John Wyer as general manager. Previously Mr. Wyer had held title and position as technical director. Beach was later to remember Wyer's promotion as one of the utmost and greatest lasting significant factors in the DB4's development as giving a "true sense of direction and purpose to the project" at Feltham.

The first modification of the concept came with the decision to dispense with the Lagonda engine and replace it with a purpose built Aston Martin unit. It perpetuated the twin overhead camshaft six-cylinder theme and in its production form had square 92 mm x 02 mm dimensions which gave the power plant a capacity displacement of 3670 cc. In its starting out point, in its original format the mechanical engineer designer Tadek Marek specified a cast-iron engine block, but this was subsequently upgraded to aluminum with chrome vanadium wet cylinder liners. The power plant head was of the same materials with valves essentially at 80 degree included angle, while at the other end of the engine was a robust seven-bearing crankshaft. In this form the engine developed a full 2400 bhp at 5700 rpm.

The DB was announced in October 1958 to a rapturous reception overall so much so that it immediately received the moniker "Aston Marvel." The racing mock up the 3 Liter DB III had a top speed in the ranges of 120 mph ( 193 km) yet the top speed of the DB4 - which was of course a high end retail production unit - was an amazing near 140 mph ( 225 kph). What a thoroughbred racehorse of a sports car.
