The Salon Privé is also serving as the ideal backdrop for Aston Martin to continue its 110th-anniversary celebrations. It's not just the DB12 Volante taking centre stage; joining the ranks are some of Aston Martin's fastest and most ferocious creations, including the V12 Vantage, and the most powerful production car the brand has ever made, the DBS770 Ultimate. If that wasn't enough, the Official FIA Safety Car of Formula 1, the Aston Martin Vantage, will also make an appearance, adding a dose of racing adrenaline to the luxe event.
Oliver Turner, the Regional President for UK & South Africa, mentioned that Salon Privé offers the perfect platform for the UK debut of the DB12 Volante because of the event's discerning crowd that appreciates the intersection of luxury and performance, precisely the market that the DB12 Volante aims to captivate.
