Am I the only person here who would just like to spend a day sitting in that shop and watching those craftsmen work? It's honestly amazing to see stuff like that still being done in 2020 and to see the end result of all that work, it must be very fulfilling for those men and women who built everything.
I think the guy is an arrogant, condescending idiot, talking about how "No one else could do this" .... ... yeah because obviously Christian @ Koenigsegg and Singer, is just a weekend tool shed operation in comparison, like the people building the Eagle E Type are somewhat inferior, or even people like Chip Foose or the Ring Brothers don't know how to put a car together ... give me a break!
I fell in love with Aston Martin when I was a child. After seeing the artisans' love for recreating Aston's heritage, and the skills they teach a new generation, I love it even more. Thank you James for the upload.
@@men8212 nothing to do with it he took an appreciation for the brand by buying one of the older model cars then I imagine was approached by them come and see what we do today with our cars of even older
@@men8212 you can tell in the video James has an appreciation for this and its genuine. Just because he hasn't put his money there doesn't mean he won't step back and certainly admire it.
@@men8212 you don't know what you'd do till you're there, no matter what bs you wanna say now. This video to me was just 2 guys loving the shit out of proper craftsmanship
I think I have never seen a better man to explain "his" productionlines. The respect for the people working and the product they make. Another amazing video James!
V proud to say that I worked at Aston Martin for eleven years and was part of the team that rescued the brand under Ford's ownership. We gave birth to the DB7 at Bloxham, the Vanquish at Newport Pagnell, and the DB9 and V8 Vantage at Gaydon. We went from building 6 cars a week to 17,000 per annum by the time I retired in 2007. An amazing and very busy time but well worth it to see this future being carved out at Works Service and ofcourse the new plant at St Asaph in S Wales, the home of the Aston Martin DBX.
What an Awesome place. Those Goldfinger Aston's are Gorgeous. As for the English Wheel, had many a go at it,when I was at Brooklands College and it's not Easy,it's an Art.
We did a db4 years ago every nut and bolt was restored. Took 2 years. I was in charge of all the parts. What a learning curve. Probably the hardest most in depth restoration I’ve ever been a part of. Couldn’t get it into pebble beach but it won best in show at Amelia island.
Brilliant stuff James! I love how the craftsmanship really shows through in this video! The fact that all of the hand crafting skill are being transferred to the younger generation of which I’m part of is great! 👍🏻
ENTANGLE Gaming every single country on the planet will have something to be ashamed of. Does one wallow in shame and self hatred? Britain has a rich and great history and I’m proud of it for sure.
I’m so impressed with what you guys are doing at Aston Martin! Absolutely no less detail than what the people in Germany are doing with Gullwing Mercedes! DB 5, what an iconic car!! Super! Keep up the good work!❤
The DB5 is my dream car and i spent alot of time doing my apprenticeship at Gaydon but the opening of the St.Athan factory brought so many DB5s there and i got to see so many and actually being driven !! Genuinely the only time i have been jealous ... amazing experience !!
@@williamhewitt3320 - I seen the Vulcan do afew runs up the runway and was there for the grand opening ... I have afew friends who work there and i live about 7 miles away from St.Athans ... amazing place
FANTASTIC video , One of my teachers worked there in the 60's his name was Bob Head, he emigrate to Australia in the late 70's , I worked with him for about 6 Years and , I learned a lot from him , boy... was he a good tradesman ! Now days a good friend of mine from Australia is working there and I am very impressed with his skills .
Such a nice and down to earth gentleman. Knows the smallest details of the process. No compromises allowed. When you run a company that way you can't fail.
I'm glad to see someone continuing the artisan rich manufacturing system and the DB5 has always been for me,the best Aston ever produced................................
I can thank my love of cars and driving to the DB5. Particularly my late Godfather's white DB5 and joining him on hill climbs in my early teens. It will always have a very special place in my heart, so thank you Mr JWW for this delightful peek behind the scenes into one of the great homages to an automotive icon that is - in my own life - without equal.
Beyond fabulous. This car says something about human endeavour, then packages it into one of the most iconic symbols of the era; the 60s; the decade of unbounded ambition and optimism. Quite wonderful.
Huge thanks to you for pulling this feature together and Paul Spires for allowing access and insight to the skills needed to reproduce history - truly a classic Aston Mecca !
@Mrjww just film one of the best car videos of all time. Never before a report from the Aston Martin factory showed their artist work the metal by hand as they did in this video. Incredible! Just and amazing documentary video of car culture and craftsmanship. Great Great work.
Even showed the station bucks. In the sixties those bucks were closely guarded secrets. What a shop! Proper artisans in a proper artisan shop!! Amazing vid, thanks for it!
I am actually blown away that a, or any manufacturer would under take such an undertaking. To recreate an icon like this is monuments to say the least. Only adds value to the brand and current line up truthfully!
rideordieguy rideordieguy clearly that’s not happening. If you take 4,500 hours and say they are working at around £100 an hour (pure guess work but it will be higher than that) then already you are looking at £450,000 in labour costs alone, before any of the materials and before any profit.
rideordieguy rideordieguy perhaps not. But they have sold all of them as far as I can make out. So it’s all a matter of perspective. If you’ve got hundreds of millions + then it’s probably a really cool thing to display in your house, garage, collection.
@rideordieguy rideordieguy Quality work demands more money. It's been like that since the beginning of time. I have a Lamborghini Huracan modded with small stuff like tune and exhaust, etc that I bought with profits from my side business and RUclips channel, and I was content, until I watched this video. It made me realize I'm still far from where I can be. Back to the hustle!
Don't think craftsmanship is hard to find....there is a heap of guys producing top notch stuff in their sheds and workshops as clearly identified on many RUclips channels. The thing is folks just won't pay for such quality
not trying to rush things. but i can see you, James, being a sort of David Attenborough of the Auto world in decades to come. So easy to listen and follow your videos. The editing is spot on the audio, the action is all amazing. A privilege to watch. Thank you for sharing.
Came across this by chance, what a surprise to find Paul Spires giving an outstanding rundown on the production of the heritage side, i'm blown away with this. You've done a solid job with this video, goes into the fine details of how things are created and finished, these old fashioned skills are alive and well and so should always be kept going for future generations to learn. Didn't want it to end, lol.
I love watching car manufacturing but this one is something else. True craftsmen and with the explanation of the procedures without um and rrs that some come with during the review makes it so enjoyable.
Wow ... simply incredible !!! Is another master piece one of the most iconic car ever made is so beautiful design that after more than 60 years can steal your heart in one second!!!
Its great to see the British mastercraft people showing the world how to make something special. The attention to detail is breathtaking. It makes me proud to be british.
Absolutely loved this. This kind of content is something very different and I for one really appreciate it. The craftsmanship is just staggering, a real dying art but beautiful to get a glimpse. Great video!
Always used to drive through Newport Pagnel in the 70s en route to Santa Pod, just to salute the old factory, it summed up specialist car makers in pre-war Britain to be in such an incongruous setting, mock Tudor semi-detached style.
I went round the Newport Pagnell Aston factory in the late 60s. Although this factory looks very different from the old one, I'm still impressed with what they've done.
Great Video, brought back so many memories when I was an apprentice mechanic working in the body shop, and I remember playing with my James bond dinky car. Have been in many exotic cars, but still think the UK make the best day to day gentleman's car. Makes you proud to be British when you see the craftsmanship that goes into these car.
this is by far my fav video u have ever done.. i have watched it many times. it must be a very special experiance to be able to have this insight.. thank you for sharing it with us all..
Well done Aston Martin. Only reinforces my love for you... I truly, truly hope that the lucky owners realize, appreciate & respect the work which has gone into it. Absolutely brilliant. What a magnificent car.
Extremely Happy to See These Artisans Passion and Knowledge Being Passed On To The Younger Generation. And For A Younger Generation Will To Learn. Great Work Aston Martin. Congratulations And Continue Passing On You Knowledge and Passion. Cheers From The Caribbean. Carlyle
That is a top notch executive right there. Appreciation for the institutional knowledge and the individual employees that possess such knowledge. Well done.
I’m in shock, the level of detail and respect for craftsmanship in the construction of this modern icon is incredible. The construction process is a work of art in itself, independent of the beautiful design of the DB5. Deepest admiration from a distant admirer of James Bond and his cars.
Paul Spires! Wow! I still have the ancient issue of Classic and Sports Car featuring him in an article on the Aston Martin V8s. He was 21 when it was published and he described what it was like running 3 Astons with his modest wages (estate negotiator at the time). You've come a long way, Paul!
I'm old enough to remember seeing Goldfinger when it was first shown in the theaters. Fell in love with the DB5 watching the movie. Wish I were rich enough to buy one of these new ones.
Thank you JWW for this video. Probably one of the best car videos i have ever watched and what boss mr. Paul is i am blown away by his knowledge into every little detail!
Truly amazing. What a great thing and a great video. I used to know someone who hand rolled those panels too. I had a brief spell working on Aston restorations in my spraying days, this is, of course, on a whole other level. So glad this is being done and that these skills are not being lost.
great workmanship from england, these cars still being made by hand , my cousin in belgium has in his garage a original db5, very old model , use this car only for special moments
Before gaydon and all the production was here you used to see body shells being wheeled across the road to the next building. Always been a fascination with this place.
I've watched all your vidioes so far and this is the best yet....who said British craftmenship was dead and 99% British components ,brilliant.Looking forward to the next installment👍😉
I can still remember many years ago taking a stroll on the Upper East Side of Manhattan near the Museum of Art. To my astonishment, parked on one of the side streets was what appeared to be the James Bond Goldfinger car! As I recall, it was not very clean or shiny that day, but the car did indeed have the revolving license plates on the rear of the car and several other features that made me believe that this must indeed have been one of the cars used in the film. Just quietly parked on a public street. Amazing. More recently, I had the good fortune to sneak into an exhibit at the Boca Raton Hotel where all of the Bond Aston Martin cars were on display. So, it seems that every once in a while all of the famous Aston Martin movie cars do actually have a reunion.
Beautiful! When I watch this I think of the Nascar shops in the USA and how they could build some super nice cars on the side to support the racing season.
very impressive ,thank you JWW for documenting this heritage craftsmanship , i hope Aston Martin never lose sight and keep on track for what they really stand for
This is incredible as both a concept and by the level of craftsmanship on display. Well done to Aston Martin for even contemplating this project. This is one of the best videos i have seen from the channel but also the best on this amazing car anywhere.
Am I the only person here who would just like to spend a day sitting in that shop and watching those craftsmen work? It's honestly amazing to see stuff like that still being done in 2020 and to see the end result of all that work, it must be very fulfilling for those men and women who built everything.

Nice sarcasm m8...
As a Ferrari-fan, I have a special place for AM and there history. I love craftmanship and coachbuilding.
No I would love to be able to do the same thing.
I'm amazed by the nose, how it's welded and finished in such a way you don't even see it. There's so much beauty in real craftsmanship.
Just being able to watch a wing or front piece being rolled into shape on the wheel from a square piece of metal 🤯.
I’ve never seen a boss that genuinely appreciates their workforce for the amazing skills as much as that chap. Amazing video as always
a rare boss !
Just the fact of having a boss who gets on with their job and leaves you alone to get on with yours is a rare thing these days!
I think the guy is an arrogant, condescending idiot, talking about how "No one else could do this" ....
... yeah because obviously Christian @ Koenigsegg and Singer, is just a weekend tool shed operation in comparison, like the people building the Eagle E Type are somewhat inferior, or even people like Chip Foose or the Ring Brothers don't know how to put a car together ... give me a break!
