The fabric hood blends in perfectly with the lines of the Vantage base model. However, with only a small glass rear window and thick pillars, it's likely that over-the-shoulder visibility will be compromised with the roof in place. But that will surely be forgotten once the top is down, giving owners even more chance to enjoy the roar of the Roadster's 4.3-litre V8 engine. This should propel the Aston from 0-60mph in five seconds and on to a maximum speed of 175mph.
The car is set to be officially revealed at the Los Angeles Motor Show in November, and UK sales should start in the spring, with a price of around Pounds85,000.
