David Browne Automotive have come up with a new car
the speedback

Thing is for me it doesn't quite work somehow= looks like a bloated version of the original like the new Mini of the old

Originally caught my eye in v small picture

WDYT?

Hmmm tough one. Lines are great, but it's a too modern version of a brilliant original. Think I'd rather park the original DB5 and a Wiesmann in my garage then... keep on dreaming!

David Brown made tractors, and not very good ones! Haha

It looks nice but too long

The original was quite short looking

Agreed - I also think to tie the front end more into the current product line (and make it slightly less new mini) I'd have shaped the grille like the modern Astons.
