This past Sunday, spotter Twan850 had a photoshoot with Aston Martin Guy in Zwolle, Netherlands. The vibrant autumn setting, with its blanket of brown leaves, provided a stunning backdrop for the shoot featuring the Aston Martin DBS.
The DBS made its debut in 2007 at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, establishing itself as the flagship of the Aston Martin lineup. Designed to blend raw power with race-bred technology and design excellence, the DBS quickly became an icon. It first gained fame as James Bond's car in "Casino Royale" (2006), where it performed a dramatic seven-roll stunt, setting a new world record. The DBS also appeared in "Quantum of Solace" (2008) during the film’s opening sequence.
In 2009, Aston Martin introduced the DBS Volante, the convertible version of the DBS. The DBS Volante offered the same thrilling performance with the added joy of open-top driving. Production of both the DBS Coupe and Volante ended in 2012 with the launch of the Vanquish.
