Aston Recon from PH . . .

For those who don't know, there has been some good recon today over at the PistonHeads AM forum. Among the findings by poster "robgt," who visited the factory, are:

"V12 Vantage Convertible to go into production in 2012

DBS replacement on its way - expect 600bhp, £200,000 price tag - existing DBS owners, he said, time to put your name down for preferential treatment

No turbo charged engines for the foreseeable future

Existing engine supply agreement extended for 4 - 5 years"

good to hear about the non-turbo engines. (i'm not a turbo hater, i've got one and have had a few others.) the engines are just further developments of the ones currently being used? there was that rumor a while back about AM planning to source from AMG...

Too funny, we were discussing why the DBS did not get the 600BHP treatment the V12V under development had just the other day.
