    How many people commented on the fact that this was a DB6 and not a DB5 before they actually watched the video? Jeez people, it's addressed in the video! The guy is living the dream, he HAS a classic Aston Martin, the rest of us should be so lucky. BTW, the production values on these videos are fantastic, I enjoy them immensely.

      I didn't want to sound too snarky, but it seems as if some people surf TH-cam just to find a mistake they can comment on, regardless of the actual content. Also, I was serious about your productions: very well executed. Like "Mr. Rogers" for gear-heads.

    This has quickly become my favourite car related TH-cam subscription. Honestly enjoy watching these episodes more than I do watching any uk top gear. Excellent cars, great documentation and awesome camera shots. Really looking forward to the next episode

      honestly top gear is way to biased for me so i can't watch it anymore... i tend to stick to channels like this that allow us car guys to ignite our passion

    Amazing video, pay no attention to the haters saying its a DB6. It doesn't matter, I didn't even notice it wasn't the DB5 until it was mentioned in the video! Still an amazing piece of work and a simply stunning and beautiful machine. He's done an awesome job at restoring it.

    The DB5 is completely out of reach for just about every Bond fan. So, this is what this chap could afford, and it is the next best thing.
    One could make the case that in 1967, Bond would have driven one if his next adventure wasn't in Japan.
    Perhaps the DB6 was in England during the YOLT assignment. It's a stretch, but, hey, this is all fantasy anyway.
    Then, 2 years later, he drove the new DBS.
    I'm building my DBS to OHMSS spec. No, its not the film seen car, but in better nick than either of the 2 used in the film.
    I would like to see more of his collection. Looks to be some rare props.
    I'm looking for any OHMSS props.
    Great job, live your dream.

    Absolutely bloody awesome. This and the DeLorean episodes are my favorites. I don't know how you find these people but I'm damn glad you do. And I'm so envious of the owners - thanks so much - if you can't own one, at least we can enjoy them thanks to you!

    Great story about a car enthusiast chasing and finding his passion. Keep up the good work guys.

    DB5 is what James Bond drove, I would personally take the DB6 with the 4.2 engine.

    21 years ago I worked at a shop on a DB6 Vantage Volante. There were 7 built. Prince Charles owned 2. There is 1 in Canada and I believe the only 1 in N. America (but things change). I could not believe the weight of the constrcution, the seat frames made with oak, the leather, wood aluminum. Everything so massive. The car had to weigh 5-6000 lbs.

    Your videos are superb! I love the way you film them. A behind the scenes/how you shoot video would be great!

    • @theaficionauto
      @theaficionauto  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      thanks! we're probably gonna do a blooper/behind the scenes video at some point. It's just a lot of work because there's so much material to go over. But it will happen :)

    • @AVERAGEPETROLHEAD
      @AVERAGEPETROLHEAD 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      theAFICIONAUTO Looking forward to it! Keep up the great work. Sometime next year I want to start telling stories about cars and their owners. Similar to yourself and Petrolicisous but in the UK. I want the videos to be beautiful though and so far my skills are lacking but I'm determined to get there.

    Very well put together videos; looking forward to watching more. The 70's Charger bit from F&F1 caught me even though I'm more of a European fan; still respect American muscle (especially such a nostalgic classic).

    Only criticism is that 7.30 minutes is not long enough!

    Late 80’s had a chance to buy a DB6 for about 18k.
    As you can infer, I figured that no way was I dropping that much on that car.
    Chalk it up to another of my many mistakes.

    I actually prefer the look of the DB6 to the DB5. Kamm tail on a car is one of those things that just can't hate. I think the DB4 looks better than either though. Looks more balanced.

    • @BoUrnNe26
      @BoUrnNe26 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I just wish Aston hadn't changed the rear window shape for the DB6. That more blocky looking window takes away from the car's lines.

    Whatever you think or feel it’s the wrong model and to refer to it as a Bond car is incorrect. Next there will be the Mazda MX5 Bond car 😂 pay correct homage to the DB6

    Evidently this crass Californian is far more of a 'Collector' than he is a 'car-lover'. I think he feels cheated in not puting up the $mil for a DB5 or DB4GT. I love the DB6 in dark colours and bright colours , anything but 'silver-birch' so sad he needs to be a little boy pretending. Its like those women who degrade their poodles puting them in tutus for walkies. At least there's no irepairable mods. Still worth $350K. Sorry. it's my favourite car of all time especially a Vantage with sunshine roof. It doesn't have to be apologetic for anything. It evolved from the 5 and moved foward. sad sad yank.
