It has nothing for which you need to make an excuse, and that has been absent from Aston for a long time.’ Auto Express – 4 ½ Stars - https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/aston-martin/db12/360580/new-aston-martin-db12-2023-review ‘In everything it does, the DB12 is a hugely better car than the one it replaces’ ‘The DB12 is a truly significant car for Aston Martin. Not only does it represent a new era for the 110-year-old company, but it also proves that perseverance, serious commitment to the cause and a sizeable increase in budget can produce spectacular results.
