53a Aston Martin

Post by Diecast »

There are known two shades of metallic green by Aston Martin: metallic green and very light metallic green almost silver metallic.
I think that it was never mentioned that there are two shades of metallic red also. The red model is quite rare and therefore perhaps there was comparison up till now.

The Aston on the right almost looks pink in that image Antonin. This is one of my favourite RW castings.

I have the light red variation only by BPW.

I like it also but not only like RW but also as the real car. I think that Aston Martin with Jaguar E Type are the prettiest british car and one of the most beautiful cars ever made.

Definitely (although there are plenty of good-looking British-made pre-war cars too.)

My two variations have a distinct shade difference too, except the version that is more on the red side isn't as dark as yours. The pictures might not show that too well.
