Top Gear - Aston Martin DB7 - BBC

[jannikmeissner]

best of all successors is the Virage in my opinion. It looks awesome, has a great V12 and the nav WORKS

[lukedf452gr]

I'm so happy that a relative of mine just bought a silver one of these :D

(I'm not a troll)

[tsx104ever]

whats the symphony that starts at 1:56...i know it's shameful of me not to know the name considering it's a very popular one...just dont remember which! some could let me know i'd appreciate it. thanks!

[TheActionHobbies]

See my youtube account and my videos

[PatrickGTOfficial]

I thought jeremy said that the best thing ever is the eagle speedster e type

[Stitchpunk9]

Those drawings look kinda like the current XK8

[gloomyoutlook]

lol, jeremy is aspirational middle class personified

[adamaqmal]

human history???? really? 

[antialiasing38]

Jeremy was right! Take a look at the new Jag C-X16. It looks exactly like those sketches!!!

[levlevi]

This designer should say: I came, I lived, I crated something extraordinary, now I'm ginna sit back and enjoy life.

[NIB2307]

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.

[antialiasing38]

@NIB2307 I only know such a legend related to Phidias the builder of the zeus statue in olympia

[NIB2307]

@antialiasing38 I think there is a great number of such legends in human history.

[1993MercuryCougarXR7]

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

[yugiohandcarfreak]

My favourite Aston Martin,

[MinaBassilious]

AM One - 77 FTW.

[teameymelli1]

he's too tall for sportscars lol

[kupfiXbutter]

i wanna see what he was drawing!!!!

: (

[jooppac]

WTH?! WHat THe HAir?

[artoodiitoo]

Best looking Aston Martin ever!

[NoGoodJim]

@artoodiitoo Not the DBS?

[artoodiitoo]

@NoGoodJim Well in my opinion anyway c: I don't like it's looks, it looks too hmm sporty :D i prefer the DB9 and 7 with their pure beautiful shapes (all astons look gorgeous tho)

[polishsoccerfan]

@Default12345678 This show takes place in the UK......

[Brunillo007]

whats the name of the song 1:54

[hddvd88]

@Brunillo007 Pachebel - Canon in D

[mohit1224]

aston martin on topgear=traditional british music in background,always saying its not that fast,always saying its sounds good,always good looking,always some mistake or the other in any AM and always being NATIONALISTIC about when it comes to aston..i consider aston martin,underpowered ,sounds which are made by fake exhaust,all aston martin look the same and all aston martins are horribly overpriced!! BUT I LOVE TOPGEAR AND ASTON MARTIN

[hddvd88]

@mohit1224 Pachelbel was a german composer ; )

[SuperBUGGzBUNNY]

hey we din get to jeremy's drawing!

[metalmatthias]

Really don't think it looks as good as he makes it out to be. Haha

[DjRjSolarStar]

All of this "safety" bullshit is pissing me off!!! The world is a dangerous place! If you don't like it, go make a fortune and freeze yourself in one of those cryogenic time capsules! FUCK!

[NobleM15fan]

@DjRjSolarStar The measures against people not wearing seat belts never really took off - it was just a rumour.

In the mid 70s, the US government considered banning rear engined cars (due to the horrendous handling on the Chevrolet Corvair). That never emerged.

There's been a lot of weird propositions put forward by governments, but 90% of them never happen.

[mclarenf101]

their drawings remind me of the alfa 8c

[Kinggoldtop]

They Have actuly designed the DB9 and DBS there, they must be psycic

[pigeonkicker25]

@Kinggoldtop the Guy's drawing on the right looked more like The XK from a few years back.

[turbochargedfilms]

Thumbs up if you think the DBS is better looking>

[freddiezante08]

@turbochargedfilms The dbs is great, but it is so much more expensive. The db9 is the best

[dashfront21]

@turbochargedfilms well, the dbs costs MUCH more.. do you really think it's going to be uglier?? seriously

[turbochargedfilms]

@dashfront21 m( . I said BETTER looking!

[dashfront21]

@turbochargedfilms yeah, i'm stupid haha. you were saying something that related to what the top gear guy said, my bad.

[tv321123]

@turbochargedfilms they did not have the dbs back then, this car stoped production in 2004, the db7 came out in 2007

[turbochargedfilms]

@tv321123 So?

[X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

@turbochargedfilms

Thumbs up if YOU are blind.

The DB7 is the best looking Aston Martin I´ve ever seen !!

[CoryColstockTheOSN]

@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X DBS FOR THE FUCKIN WIN!

[adeenbabar]

db7

[MichaelAarons1701]

I wanted to see Jeremy's!

[DiogNewmen]

I'd like to say, that this car is Not a Good Road-Car overall...

I mean, just Look at how close Jeremy comes to hiting his Head against the freaking A-Pillar!! It's almost unacceptable for such a High-End Super Car...

Hell, even a Lambo isn't that bad!!

And I KNOW what Jeremy means when he says 'I could Literally tear this car to pieces'. Hell, that's no Joke!! :^P

[coolsdon]

@DiogNewmen No TRUE car enthusiast would make such a naff comment! It's like saying a Ferrari's too low down or an Ariel Atom's too noisy or I can't get a set of golf clubs in a Veyron.Just look how BEAUTIFUL it is,for crying out loud!!!!

[DiogNewmen]

@coolsdon Well, Guess What?!?

People in the Real World that have that kind of Money ARE Saying those things!!!!

People that have Big Money still want to Live, Drive where they want, and not be imprisoned by there Car, just because it's Beautiful!!

No madder what, people Still want Functionality! Which is why Luxury Car's out-sell these kinds of cars.... Even in this Price Range. :^P

[turbochargedfilms]

@coolsdon You can get a golf set in a Veyron.

[mitchy8]

my dad just bought a 1998 aston martin db7 .unreal.

[spyke99999]

Christ, if an American car had ONE of these flaws Clarkson would tear it to pieces, yet he seems to revel over this poorly made skeleton of a sports car. I admit it's a gorgeous car, not quite a classic yet, but this is another perfect example of Top Gear's ignorance towards British flaws and American excellence in their tests.

[coolsdon]

@spyke99999 Er,Jeremy rattles thro' its shorts comings,try LISTENING!! Besides there isn't an American car that,even today, comes ANYWHERE NEAR the Aston's abilities,let alone looks.Which is why European cars are sold world-wide and US cars are sold,well....in America!! If you don't think it's a balanced car review then the bias is surely with you!!

[Enrage13]

@coolsdon

American cars are only sold in America because there is no other country that is as large with the interstate system that America has. My home state, Minnesota, is larger than Great Britain yet has only 1/12th the population. Think about how that affects the design choices that go into cars and the transit system in general. There is no country like America in terms of geography, but there are plenty of places similar to Europe. You tell others to listen; why don't you try to think?

[C63AMGestate]

@Enrage13 American cars work in Australia too. Huge, wide roads and no corners whatsoever.

Most of our cars are essentially derivatives of American cars (Holdens, for instance, usually with Buick or Chevrolet engines in them).

[ReadeRomke]

@Enrage13, and because they drink so much fuel!

[DiogNewmen]

@coolsdon Hey..... The Force isn't with you, man...

Not all European Cars are sold world-wide...

Just the Super-Cars...

[thomasnasl]

What's the deal with these Aston's for the British? They pretty much all look like the same car. They say Porsche have the same design but doesn't all Aston's look alike as well?

[MrBlahster]

@thomasnasl no they dont have u seen the dbs and the vanquesh they dont look like this one at all

[undeny]

@thomasnasl certainly not the One-77. But I guess from the side, on a foggy road, from a distance.. yeah, actually!

[shiftymeister]

Hell I'm too fat to get this seatbelt around

[willis9615]

The DB7 was a massive leap for Aston Martin

[Kinemacolour]

I don't understand Clarkson's obsession with the Humber Bridge. It's just a bunch on concrete.

[chitaristu88]

can anyone tell from with season this is??? thanks

[ErnestHemingwayJr]

yep there was a new e-type coming up.. they called it the XK!!

[xsbgtr]

Where is Jeremy´s?

[xKCBEx]

wait is that a DB7 or a DB9 or a Vantage, I can't tell they all look so much alike anymore. Toss the xerox AM and do something different.

[tonyrome67]

If you go back and review Clarkson's programmes over the years, he's forever coming out with ridiculous predictions that the supercar is finished. This is another classic example. Cars like the DB7 won't be made anymore etc. etc.. Er, just take a look at all the amazing supercars available today! He's a dickhead.

[mondeost2202008]

And folks, what we have seen both of Ian Callum and that other guy had drawn was not the Future Jaguar E-type but the Future XK. Look at the proportions.

Still, If I want a GT car, I'd go with the Jaguar XKR or the Maserati Granturismo but with no limits, I'd go with the Aston Martin DB9. It's the motorworld's interpretation of sex.

[Stratocaster05]

Why do all BBCWorldwide videos look like shit?

[RAIDENISLIGHTNING]

it doesn't look that good i dont think

[HDaviator]

Clarkson really hates America lol.

[E60BMWM5]

they don't even let you die in this fucking world

[ilovebassets]

As my husband said after seeing this.....it's in the garage,

shall we take the Aston...?

Yes please!!!

[jackismetallicafan]

i can start driving next year and im already saving up 4 one hmmmm what a good 1st car :)

[80sfordman]

Nice to know a fellow Scotsman designed 2 of the most beautiful cars ever made!

[redart912]

wow british people are really good at the American accent, shame we can't imitate their english

[10yroldcarlover]

the modern day e-type look like a aston martin DB9

[GigaSpinoTrex]

People who don't wear seat belts need to be watched? People who are extremely  stupid to the point that they shouldn't be driving should be taken into consideration in making good cars that are safe and reliable?! How about get rid of the stupid people instead of the smart designs!

[BMWpower414]

i could buy one for 38 000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[reel2real5]

am i the only one who thinks the db9 is prettier thn the db7 mostly because of the more modern interior the larger grill the different headlights and taillights and the modern "swan doors" that open slightly upwards which just looks so cool!

[k2kkoos]

@reel2real5 The DB9 is a beautiful car in it's own way, compared to the DB7 it is more spectacular, but the DB7 is more timeless, and prettier, and for me has the edge over the DB9.

[rubbadude]

lolz canon in the background made my day XD

[IsupovAlex]

I like the way he talks about Ivan The Terrible, sounds like he is a history lecturer.

The only thing is that it happened in Moscow almost 200 years before St.Petersburg was actually built...And it is only a legend, any way.

Check your sources first, man, even if it is not your fault that school education is fucked badly up in England.

[TheMarkus248]

that guy looks like the joker

[visiteur00000]

LMAO ''in dog years''

[MrThegnome777]

What did Jezza's car scetch look like XD ?

[Blink182DudeRanch]

he designed the escort cosworth and the db7? that guy has talent; two very nice cars

[norasemo]

what dose this thing get for gas mileage?

[rollerbladinginc]

Trust british engineering, beautiful cars.

Only we can do it

[DBerkwood]

The successor of the DB7, the DB9, is a great looking car after all.

I hope the new DB will be looking great as well, it has to in fact ;)

[jorik206]

hahaha '' Hell I'm too fat to get this 'round''  XD

[UrbanFingerboarders]

my favourite aston martin by far

[MercSLRFan]

Hell I'm too fat to get that (seatbelt) around!

Yes, that's an American.

[nijlpaardowns]

wicked car

[fcabido]

db7 vanquish db9 xk and xkr best looking cars ever.

[macconnell100]

Can't believe he prefers this to the DB9.

[rlmotionpictures]

its beautiful. but the back end doesn't look good to me for some reason

[NixaSHP]

When DB7 comes out in 1994 it wasnt ugly . . . you bloody retards.

[shaalis]

When the DB7 CAME out in 1994...... past particible. Come now, write like an adult.

[2180TomWoolley]

best sounding car ever

[LsnakeM]

its so ugly

[Ycondaman]

Yes, the DB7, the last beautiful Aston. Totally in a different league than the dumptruck DB9.

[2jzjul]

@Ycondaman what about the Vanquish (wich is really similar to the db7)

[bigbuggaman]

@Ycondaman DB7 beautiful???????...hmm...

[LorienoftheBlossom]

@Ycondaman you really think the DB9 is an ugly car then?

[oarih94]

what? why do car firms have to look after people who don't wear seatbelts? if they don't want to wear seatbelts, that's they're problem!

[Ronnie51026]

@oarih94 the laws says they have to. half the laws (in america) are stupid like that.

[magbig1]

@oarih94 probably cause americans are gonna sue them

[maikeru01]

@oarih94 We have lots of stupid laws in America...

[Slipknotyk06]

@oarih94 - That's the reason that when a passenger jumps in any '08-up vehicle sold in the US, there's a chime that indicates someone, and often which someone, isn't wearing their seatbelt.

[hunghuge12]

@oarih94 Pedestrians too. If they're too stupid to stay out of the way...

[Crusader1987]

@oarih94 Well, lots have changed since this episode aired. Now it's pretty much illegal to not wear a seat belt while driving in the US.

[Campanelli]

I'm looking for the song from Aston reviev then Clarkson says "Shell we take an Aston" and the couple cruise round fashionable streets in it. Is it Vivaldi?

[armandosama]

@Campanelli It's Pachelbel's Canon in D ;)

[asassin06]

Canon in D

[muulka]

It's Pachabel's Canon in D. Very famous.

[lahmzak]

well, it wasnt a jag after all. It was a DB9

[gerfall]

By the way you talk id say your about 14 year's old and your dad drives a toyota.

[coolerdude44]

@bandit25501 hahahhaha you own a db7. right. well, i don't think most db7 owners would make videos like WebCam 20090731 2319.

the db7 is way better than a corvette, but the corvette would beat it in a drag race because it weighs significantly less and has more power.

[Str00pwafel]

Fake, only nice people own Aston Martins.

[NFS4LFE]

u mad

[CongureNinja117]

CLARKSON HAD HAIR!

[EA11RDrift]

I've always found the DB7 to be a bit ugly. The silhouette was beautiful, but it seemed that all the details were done ever so slightly wrong. The headlights are funky, the taillights like like leeches, etc.

[shadizladi617]

definitely agree..

[realitities]

@EA11RDrift yateee it was cross eyed...but pre db9 it mustve been good looking

[CoDmontagesvideos]

@EA11RDrift That is very ugly....

[MyRandomReviews]

@EA11RDrift - And then came the DB9. :)

[mauricethatsme]

yeah i know this car is older but the the one from die another day the vanquish or something like that is look almost the same as the dbs and db9 only the rear lights were different

[xchrisbobisx]

the DBS has vents and grill inspired by the vanquish. the DB9 does not have the side skirts and vents the DBS has, the vanquish is no longer produced, the one-77 is aston's new flagship car. aston martins have more or less the same front, the ass of the car is the biggest overhaul, the old ones have a big long ass you could play chess on it and was probably its biggest appearance flaw.

[jadakissboi]

It's crazy how the GT-R actually has the system that pops the hood up.

[cologist]

come on guys the db9 and dbs are newer models ^_^"

For its time this looked pretty good I think

[apache1234657]

shall we take the kia rio

[AMVDawg]

shall we take the trabant

[mauricethatsme]

the db9 and dbs looking better than this one

[smoof60]

duh, cuz they're newer than the db7

[PikemannUrge]

Not so. Some older cars look better than their modern equivalents. The DB7 is quite ordinary. So was the older XK, too.

[Mastermind12358]

is it true that it also got the v12 (48 vankle editon) from the xjs ? .

[tigersoup]

the front of aston looks like a fish's mouth

[whiteynator]

he looks abit like Bond at 0:20!

[CoolestPaintballer]

"Shall we take the Aston?"

Why yes, we shall.

[FergusonGames]

I prefer the DB Cars (DB9 and DBS)

[KingVirmire]

i preffer the vanquish

[MrManson94]

lol Pachabel Canon in D at about 2.05 o something? xD

[AbdoHad90]

yup ..

[LordNelson87]

that guy looks like the joker

[q8ity7]

LOL ur right, kind of scary when hes grining

[erenNtR]

the Moroccan king has this car :P

is it expensive?

[meeeepeep]

They sold for $140,000 or so in the US when they were new... and that doesn't include the cost to operate and maintain the car. You'll notice M6 just flew his to England in an air force transport plane for servicing.

[erenNtR]

Exactly. I just red that.

Are you moroccan?

[James007BondSniper2]

why the fuck are you talking about a stupid jap toy car in the comments section of a review of a aston :S

[unloadedboar1]

damn i wanted to see Jeremy's lol

[clu4u]

Ckarkson @5:32 about seat belts, American accent "Hell, I'm too fat to get this 'round". LMFAO

[78thesweepstakes]

you should have went to specsavers...this is a beautiful car!

[ArielCaboob]

fuck that, nothing looks sexier than the ass of a R34

[TheManGuyDude]

The R35 is sexier and faster

[ArielCaboob]

umm the R35 looks softer, kind of like a modded 300z and I hate that car . R34 looks aggressive / sexier and no, the R35 is still shit compared to the R34 maybe not stock but modded. Also their trannys suck balls and launch control + all the bs takes away from the joy of driving. Also the R34 has a way better sound. Oh and did I mention the 35 cost almost double. pathetic.

[auchamp1]

R35 isnt shit you noob . R34 is old now , it isnt good as R35 , and R35 cost almost double becouse it is two times or even three better .. so why dont you keep your opinion for your self????

[ArielCaboob]

Show me a R35 with 1000+ HP, or an r35 get the 1/4 in 8 or under. Oh wait, the tranny breaks on the stock engine already imagine modded. G.G

[auchamp1]

oh i get it , you only care about Horse Power becouse stock R34 woulbe miles away from R35 ^^ Pwnd

[ArielCaboob]

Oh I get it! you buy expensive performance cars to run them stock and drive around like a grand ma ^ ^

Also you like to get beaten by modded cobras that cost less than half the price :) making you look like a total idiot. Nice!

[auchamp1]

OK srsly , R35 isnt like a ferarri enzo which cost milion Pounds , OK , So You Think That R35 is bad right? can you tell me why ? and those 1000 HP cars cost milions ^^

[imabookfreak]

ohh, I wanted to see Jeremy's drawing. :(

[Jetfreak74656]

Hmmm, that Aston's plate is strikingly close to the one used in Johnny English.

[RebelForce8]

So its rubbish
