Aston Martin Vantage Launch

Interior looks yuk.

Reminds me of an old fart dressing up as an uncool 20 year old. Not a good look. They would be better off sticking to a more consistent style, whether it be young or old.

It has a passing resemblance from some angles of the new TVR which also looks all wrong in my eyes

Interestingly, according to the folks from Aston Martin last night, they are actively trying to get away from a consistent style on the basis that everyone was saying they couldn’t tell the models apart.

I agree their models often look the same. But I meant consistency in terms of trying to appeal to a more specific age-group. There's a lot of mutton dressed as lamb in current Astons and I don't think it appeals to either the young or old in general. The Aston traditionalists (old farts mainly) might not like the more contemporary styling features, while younger people might not appreciate the dated interiors. But then I've never been a big Aston fan anyway.

Great photos and lovely machine.

Not so keen on the interior

[LLL]

I like the exterior, but the interior is not to my liking at all. Maybe I'm too young for this or just belong in the camp who prefer more modern looking interiors that are less complex. I'm so tired of the "gentleman exclusive club" interior with leather and busy details. Give me a more sporty interior á la GT3 with Alcantara or sporttex materials. I'm actually staring to dislike leather in cars more and more and it feels a bit like it belong to the past. Time to move on!

The interior is positively gruesome! The problem with Astons, for me, has always been the way they drive even though I think, particularly the last generation, they are beautiful cars. At £130k + I can't see the value in one of these.

The more I see the interior the more I think it has been designed by a child with a big crayon. Just look at those air vents and the stupid dashboard mounted iPad

I think you've nailed it for me right there. Reminds me of Emirates business class cabins
I know some people still like this kind of thing, but I just find it old fashioned and ornate and especially so in a "modern" sportscar. Porsche seem to strike a much better balance between traditional and modern in their interiors.
