INTERIOR
The interior of Aston Martin DBS 1970 ‘Persuaders’ (as named when auctioned) carries the same untouched and unhampered design. Grasping your attention in same comes the leather covered seats and massive steering wheel covering the unique dials making the instrument cluster. Company didn’t put much emphasis on making it ‘car of today’, and we believe this is that one positive aspect which makes it worth its price. Reason being, the person who’d go for it, is surely inclined towards its legendary design. However fancy stitching has been amalgamated to give it more royal and luxurious look and we don’t consider this as something which can take or damage its ancestor credentials.
