Top Gear’s Jeremy Clarkson puts an Aston Martin DB7 through its paces. The thrill of driving is almost too much for Jeremy in this look at this beautiful automobile. From the BBC.
Volvo Car Corporation: Monitoring and Concept Center VMCC — Minimizing weight and complexity, while maximizing driving enjoyment, is the philosophy behind the Volvo Air Motion Concept. Thousands fewer components are employed than in a traditional car thanks to the powerful, yet simple, compressed air motors. The Volvo Air Motion demonstrates the beauty and purity of Scandinavian design and delivers a guilt free, raw driving experience.

@tv321123 So?
#4 by Stitchpunk9 on September 22, 2011 - 2:39 am
Those drawings look kinda like the current XK8
#5 by tv321123 on September 22, 2011 - 3:03 am
@turbochargedfilms they did not have the dbs back then, this car stoped production in 2004, the db7 came out in 2007
#6 by dashfront21 on September 22, 2011 - 3:46 am
@turbochargedfilms yeah, i’m stupid haha. you were saying something that related to what the top gear guy said, my bad.
#7 by turbochargedfilms on September 22, 2011 - 4:31 am
@dashfront21 m( . I said BETTER looking!
#8 by dashfront21 on September 22, 2011 - 5:17 am
@turbochargedfilms well, the dbs costs MUCH more.. do you really think it’s going to be uglier?? seriously
#9 by gloomyoutlook on September 22, 2011 - 5:48 am
lol, jeremy is aspirational middle class personified
#10 by adamaqmal on September 22, 2011 - 6:04 am
human history???? really?
#11 by antialiasing38 on September 22, 2011 - 6:20 am
Jeremy was right! Take a look at the new Jag C-X16. It looks exactly like those sketches!!!
#12 by NIB2307 on September 22, 2011 - 6:29 am
@antialiasing38 I think there is a great number of such legends in human history.
#13 by levlevi on September 22, 2011 - 6:54 am
This designer should say: I came, I lived, I crated something extraordinary, now I’m ginna sit back and enjoy life.
#14 by antialiasing38 on September 22, 2011 - 7:29 am
@NIB2307 I only know such a legend related to Phidias the builder of the zeus statue in olympia
#15 by NIB2307 on September 22, 2011 - 7:41 am
Jeremy made a mistake on 3:37
In the times of Ivan the Terrible St. Petersburg was even not been founded. To be more precise this legend is about St. Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow which was built in the middle of XVI by order of Ivan the Terrible.
#16 by 1993MercuryCougarXR7 on September 22, 2011 - 7:58 am
The fact it was a Jag XJS it’s design waa based on the long lost XJ41/42 that never went into production. It was pretty much a 2-Door XJ40
#17 by yugiohandcarfreak on September 22, 2011 - 8:11 am
My favourite Aston Martin,

#21 by artoodiitoo on September 22, 2011 - 10:00 am
@NoGoodJim Well in my opinion anyway c: I don’t like it’s looks, it looks too hmm sporty
i prefer the DB9 and 7 with their pure beautiful shapes (all astons look gorgeous tho)
#22 by NoGoodJim on September 22, 2011 - 10:25 am
@artoodiitoo Not the DBS?
#23 by kupfiXbutter on September 22, 2011 - 10:37 am

SUPER! I love unusual cars))
#27 by parkourdude585 on September 22, 2011 - 11:56 am
No roof no doors. uhm.. So. No driving in the rain?
#28 by ColeFried81 on September 22, 2011 - 12:21 pm
@questarr Well that’s just GREAT. That just means there’s no chance in hell to ever get any of this music on my ipod, paid for or not. Preposterous!
#29 by questarr on September 22, 2011 - 12:52 pm
@ColeFried81 It is a fact that Lee Miles did the score for the video. I directed this project, Lee Miles is my right hand man when it comes to music, he is very talented person in the music field, he produces bands of all types, and is a front man in the band “Oh My Stars”. You will see the credits below the Volvo logo, @3:57. Cheers -Quinn Starr
#30 by ColeFried81 on September 22, 2011 - 12:57 pm
@questarr I beg to differ. I found a Lee Miles and he plays acoustic. The music in this video is atmospheric. This cannot be Lee Miles unless this was a side project of his.
#31 by questarr on September 22, 2011 - 1:47 pm
@ColeFried81 Original music scored by Lee Miles.
#32 by markit8dude1 on September 22, 2011 - 1:50 pm
Did I miss something? Where are the air storage tanks?Compressed air is stored in cylinders and it doesn’t look like there is room for any in this design.
#33 by ColeFried81 on September 22, 2011 - 2:07 pm
What’s the song used in this video? Does anyone know? PLEASE it’s beautiful!
#34 by maikeru01 on September 22, 2011 - 3:05 pm
sucks if only 3 people go for a drive. one has to face backwards alone.
#35 by ursula22ify on September 22, 2011 - 3:38 pm
wow! this looks so slim, light, and super cool!! car of the future!
#36 by Commentator3 on September 22, 2011 - 4:06 pm
3:13: “Look at it… its… Shit..” XD
#37 by CeKoBeaTs on September 22, 2011 - 4:28 pm
on 2:50 looks like buggati.. imagine that is buggati ??
#38 by wivese86 on September 22, 2011 - 4:32 pm
Crash safety? I’m tired of concepts that aren’t really feasible for everyday. If you’re not going to make it production in the near future keep it to yourselves. Useless.
#39 by Ninja5810 on September 22, 2011 - 4:48 pm
WELL THATS GOOD FOR DIFFERENT WEATHER SCENARIOS LOL
#40 by rugbycressard on September 22, 2011 - 5:21 pm
this is just dumb
#41 by fizzguts on September 22, 2011 - 5:29 pm
I loath brain dead designers like this. Not an engineer in sight to deliver a reality kick from a steel capped boot up their arse.
Fact Bearings in the rims mean any curb impact seizes the wheel.
Fact Air motors & compressors lose energy to heat so this POC will use 5 x more energy than an electric car of the same performance
This carbon fiber ashtray will have a 10 mile range with miserable performance. Idiots

@ChompGAR Also, You are a total %*%#^
#43 by FutureTech809 on September 22, 2011 - 6:06 pm
@ChompGAR Why blame the Tesla? The Tesla is so awesome!!!

#47 by MrZarkop on September 22, 2011 - 7:41 pm

#48 by Tobi1087Tobi on September 22, 2011 - 8:11 pm
Nice – Love Minimalism !!!
#49 by ChompGAR on September 22, 2011 - 8:54 pm
Sorry for the triple posting, but I just have to ask you something. Ever heard of a CONCEPT car?! It’s a concept! 1. They will make cheaper and not so extreme-looking cars based on the concept car! 2. They might not manufacture any cars around this concept at all!
#50 by ChompGAR on September 22, 2011 - 9:25 pm
What the deuce? There’s a ton of comments down there and I just read them all. I did expect at least over 10 intelligent commenters, but to my disappointment, I only found like 4? What’s wrong with you guys? Why do you even bother?!
