Aston Martin One-77 (2009): new video and cabin photo

By Tim Pollard First Official Pictures 12 November 2008 12:12 Aston Martin today publishes a second video of its uber-exclusive One-77 supercar – and we see the first glimpse inside the £1.2 million car's cabin. Watch the short film on our video player below to see official footage of Aston CEO Dr Ulrich Bez, design boss Marek Reichman and program manager Chris Porritt talking about the One-77. Porritt said the One-77 continued the tradition set by low-volume models like the DB4 GT Zagato – with craftsmanship that just wouldn't be possible on a V8 Vantage or DB9.

Porsche buyers put the brakes on stop-start technology

By Chris Chilton Motor Industry 23 June 2008 18:56 Direct injection and a clever new PDK dual-clutch gearbox have cemented the new 911’s reputation as the greenest performance car around, but Porsche engineers are being hampered from making the iconic sports car even cleaner by the public’s reluctance to accept further green technology Engineers at the launch of the facelifted 911 told CAR that fitting a BMW-style start-stop system could chop a further 10g/km from the Carrera’s 225g/km CO2 rating but that performance car buyers weren’t keen on having such overtly planet-conscious tech on their cars. Start-stop works by cutting the engine when the car’s stationary in traffic, and restarting automatically when you touch the pedals to move off again. Every manual transmission-equipped BMW 1-series comes with the technology, excepting the truly high performance versions.
