Yeah, absolutely beautiful and touching review…STUNNING!! Perfect combination of the moving V12 Vantage, beautiful landscape and music!!
Love the effect with the different countryside, when the interior of the car is shown…
…probably one of the best car reviews ever…
Agree it was rather touching ....
Poor Lambo hagning on the spikefence...

Top Gear's budget has no boundaries. Helicopters, submarines and battleships -- anything they need they get. That is why they can provide us with such astoundingly beautiful footage. Though I don't agree with the gloomy stance of Clarkson in that "review". V12 engines may be on the way out but there is more efficiency to squeeze out of the combustion engine and therefore super cars will not cease to exist anytime soon.

Aston's V12 is so patheticly underpowered and weak
510 hp 6.0 V12......LOL!!!!
Underpowered?!?
In my opinion it's enough power for such a car…

Amazing footage and very emotional

Underpowered?!?
Appetising power, wrong engine.
A V10 or forced induction V8 would achieve the same power output with a substantially more favourable fuel economy and weight. The car is a beast, but belong to a minority of small cars powered by a massive v12 cylinder engine.

I loved this review. The scenery was stunning, but what caught my attention the most was Jeremy being serious.
This is one of the best pieces of film making I've ever seen. I can't wait until they're back next season in November.

The end of Top Gear?

Remember that episode of I’m Alan Partridge in which Norfolk’s
favourite light broadcaster makes a ‘humourous intro to a
song’ which accidentally suggests that the Queen is dead
something he later realises has ‘been taken a bit too
literally by one or two listeners… and a newspaper’.
Something similar seems to have happened after the poignant
Aston Martin film that closed the current series of Top Gear.
The Twitterers (or, if you’re David Cameron, the Twatterers)
have gone nuts with speculation that Jeremy was not
forecasting the end of V12 wonders like the Aston;
he was prophesising the demise of Top Gear itself.
So, just to clear up once and for all, Top Gear is NOT DEAD.
Unless it went in the night and has yet to be discovered by the maid…
Ha! Not really. See you in November.

lol, didn't notice before - well he is driving, but very very slow - probably on the Top Gear test track or somewhere else! Nevertheless I love this video - because it's so different from all the other Top Gear reviews by Clarkson!

I think he was driving slow so they can easily manipulate the scenery outside. If the car was driving very fast the camera would be too jerky for them to have a smooth transition of the outside scenery.
