Kahn Vengeance Aston Martin DB9 -- /DRIVEN

- The story of British designer Afzal Kahn's quest to design the car he's always wanted. That car is his coachbuilt Aston Martin DB9, called Vengeance. Instagram: @afzalkahn.
I like that he took a elegant piece and added brute but futuristic bladerunner, mad max design to it. Not for the faint hearted but for the risk taker who goes outside of the norms.. Good piece +Drive
So I bought me an Aston, copied a bunch of Aston stylin cues, then put all together using the Aston I bought. it's completely my design.
Not all the Apollo missions were a success but Apollo is a success! Afzal is a doer
Ignore the haters, this car is awesome. I'd buy one in a heartbeat if I had the money. Thank you Khan for caring enough to make the effort. You deserve every success in the future. bravo!
Looks like Aston, Maserati and Alfa Romeo had a baby.
Why? Took one of the most gorgeous and elegant car designs ever, and made it bulbous and aggressive. There's plenty of other cars that you can improve on visually, the DB9 is not one of them.
I used to work at a Land Rover dealership, I worked on multiple Kahn design cars and they are one of the dodgiest companies out there. The parts are cheap and break, ALOT.

CinemaUnited haha yeah!!
LordKellthe1st no, I think you are thinking of Hennessy
LordKellthe1st no, I think you are thinking of Hennessy
Why would you watch a video of him if his cars are dodgy thinks if it was owned by a caucasian it'd be a+
love those wheels , front looks great , back looks great , side looks great ,BUT i think it would look better if it had slightly smaller rear arches , they are just slightly too big
Wheels are ace, and the larger grille is nicely more agressive.
agree with you 100%
Interlacing issue
A lot of people hating are the same ones who could never own one of these cars. This guy has come so far and such a great inspiration
Disquieting piece of design, something different but fresh... and old-fashion in same time. Great thing.
drunken attempts at alliteration aside, i appreciate your words and you've made me reconsider my previous perspective on the aesthetics of this car.
Haters make you famous. Well done Afzal, a great design.. this is for the haters,he is doing something right, he’s made multi millions from his creativity.. you guys carry on driving your fiestas and talk rubbish in this comments section.
Looks amazing.I would trust him on redesigning my DB9 in a heart beat.
I think the one77 was astons most beautiful car i love the vulcan too. Right now i really think the new fordgt is great looking
The Vanquish Zagato Volante is the most beautiful Aston IMO.
yup, one-77 stole my heart.
it just looks so damn good looking.
new ford gt's rear looks like a pig face
He modded a Panamera with a spoiler which causes inbalance on higher speeds. Looks over function. Which is bad
Its beautiful to see a person who think kind of "it looks good, but ill have a better way".. thats the mindset of a designer!
There is an '02 db7 vantage convertible down the road from me with 22,000 miles, flawless paint and interior for sale for $32,000. I stopped and talked to the guy and he said he would take $25k.
There just isn't another v12 sports car around that can be had at the steal it prices of some Austins.
If that car wasn't a convertible I would have brought it home that day.
Edward Feenman ADD another 25k for maintenance

Also DB7’s are terrible.
Looks fab! well done Kahn & Aston Martin!
The rear is a zagato copy and the front is a copy of thee Jag F type. It's not exactly new looking
Kahn Design: We're your cheap Mansory!
I wouldn’t call it “pretty”.
You cant really improve the looks of a DB9, its one of the most beautiful cars made in modern time.
This is amazing! Looks way more exciting than the normal DB9. Don't care about all the picky haters. This is art!!!
I'm sorry but Kahn are the professionals at ruining cars
Harris agreed the range rovers are abhorrent
You should be banned from any future influence in the automotive world for butchering an Aston Martin like that.
It's like having some timeless world famous super model for a wife and paying for her to be cosmetically altered to be 50 percent Elephant man.
super models are always cosmetically altered anyways.
Bad example but you catch my drift, let's replace supermodel with say your dream woman, looks wise at least.
fucking Kahn ruins another otherwise beautiful car
if the grill was lower it might be better looking
His introductory story is nice & all but it's a pipe dream for most people. He said he was poor yet studied architecture? If you're truly poor you can't afford extra schooling after highschool. Let alone likely be attending a good school that has the resources to enable your graduation in the first place. When your: hands are tied by the state, feet are bound by upbringing & confidence crushed by business practices. That's a situation no one can climb out of without winning the lottery or something.

I do this stuff for a living, and I'm seriously stumped... how the hell did they get that shot at @4:54?
Follow vehicle with a zoom lense? Drone? Any number of ways honestly.
Just a suction mounted wing camera with electric up and down movement.
ytcf71 is correct.
Actually, I think it's gorgeous. It's definitely age-regressed and less sophisticated, but it is truly mean without being contemptuous and has a personal theme that feels all of a piece.
The idea is there but the bodylines dont flow into each other. The rear looks much wider than the rest of the car and that makes it look like it was enlarged and pasted on. It could be a great car if it was a little more polished
I can relate. I'm always thinking of how can I make my cars better and what I'd do differently if I was involved in the design process.
This might be the best looking car I've ever seen
This is stunning can't believe I haven't heard about this before
Love the vanquish he's totally right those older ones were the last muscle . I've always wondered what maintenance is like for one. It would be really nice to have one.
Just because you modify premium cars does not make it sophisticated.
BEAST MODE ENABLED. Awesome car ❤
Well he's completely ballsed this up. Not surprised though, standard Khan effort.
I have the same feelings for cars as you do i always wanted to create or design my own car only the body and interior but i am also doing IT engineering because i m a middle class boy so i have to earn first then stick to my dream i will take u as an inspiration thank you so much for this motivation.
Kahn makes another beautiful car
The title of this video should be "How to fuck up a beautiful car 101"
Give the man respect he's worked hard employs people, pays his taxes it's Asians who put out nice cars on the streets of UK, otherwise you would see too many bmx polo puntos fiesta chavs so stop hating
Big respect your story is truly amazing! Big up 👍🏾
What a unbelievable car done a exquisite job on it that folks is what you call a world class motor take a bow Afzal you Sir a a genius 👌👍
I differ from many of the comments in the comment section.
To me it looks like a much more meaner version of an Aston.
It looks something like James Bond''s evil doppelganger would drive. The design is truly a bit too much, but surely exudes the spirit of vengeance from every angle and every curve.
Looks like a cheap kit car imitation of an actual Aston Martin now. Well done.
Chinese knockoff.
This is the antithesis of putting lipstick on a pig. Kahn’s designs have never been inspiring or beautiful (imo) He has a unique ability to bring gaudiness to beauty. I don’t doubt he was on the design team at GM when they pinned the Aztec.
It’s just a db9 with a body kit... I don’t understand why it’s given a video.
It would have been even more aggressive with a manual gearbox.
They took the stroke of genius out. Lol
Looks cool, he should partner with an equally passionate engineer to improve the rest of the car.
Bulbous 😂, such a Kahn word. Top bloke and nice job btw. Aston saw this and then copy pasted to the DB11, oh and quietly ask Kahn to stop making them 😅
That rear looks amazing
Love the wheels and the front of the car. Great job:)
This car looks good. I thought Aston Martin is finally making a car I like.
Be ok in America or Far east where they love a turnip!
I bought a rather large turnip yesterday. I'm making quite the soup.
What is wrong with the mirrors? They don't fit the shape of the car at all.
i think it looks absolutely beautiful at the rear but the front is kind of ruined by the numberplate and stock headlights
Why is it that whenever someone leaves their car as-is, nobody bats an eye, but when they do so much as change a wheel, everyone goes on as if they just broke 10,000 laws? Are we not allowed individuality anymore?
Anyone knows the soundtrack around 3:33?
I love the rear and the rear quarter panels, the front looks good too , but the grill needs to have the standardard aston martin horizontal grill.
Front half looks beautiful but man did he butchered the rear, my god it doesn't flow, its like a women with a pretty face and nice torso but a big as but and skinny as legs.
There's always one thing that makes British luxury car manufactures stand out from the rest and that's Elegance and class Aston Martin and Rolls Royce have mastered this.
And Khan decides to go and take out that elegance and class from the Aston, basically ruining it.
Take a bow Mr Kahn
What an extremely beautiful car.
I would be more impressed if he took a fiat doblo and made it into a competitor for a G63 lol. Now that's a challenge
Beautiful work! I really admire that car
gorgeous beyond words
I hope he does la ferrari or something else really expensive next , these are really cheap now , keep up the good work mr kahn every time i see one your ranges it reminds me that money cant buy good taste
He looks like the guy from Casino Royale that Bond took his DB5 and his woman
"Kahnt wait to ruin another Aston!"
Grill of a Maserati, haunches of a Porsche and rear end of a Ferrari. Oh dear.
I've seen it in real life in his showroom, its much better than in videos and pictures
Wow stunning
This car is beautiful.
Side profile stunning
He put the “DB” in DB9 🤦♀️
Ehhh fisker did a better job on aston martin with the lightning
I like his story
It looks like an Aston had sex with a Masserati gran turismo and a Bentley continental. It is awesome!
I love the wheels
Awesome looking car it looks mean
The comments can't decide if they like it or not but that is just good design. This is interesting. I like it.
Great coach building work.
Like the vantage had a baby with a VW Beatle.
It looks like it was designed to look; just because you don't like it go look at standard Astons! It's definitely got a muscle, mean and menacing look; don't think it was meant to be elegant.
*_Aston martin zagato is the most beautiful aston martin ever._*
Waited something good, exited the video...
The number plate painting on the fender is disturbing the overall look.
It looks like shit.
Looks like Hannibal Lecter from the front :P
its beautiful for me but all he need to do is keep aston martin rear light
Want to see Randy pope drive this thing.
Mission accomplished.
Was hoping this video involved harris
Nice car, but I think that resampling should have been turned off or something with this video because it seems wavy at times. Not that you care what I say :-)
Thats Mansory level design..
Talks about sitting in his dad’s Aston as a kid, then goes & tells us how he was poor?
Video would been better with a zoom in on mr Kahn stroking the steering wheel
Pretty cool
what a good creation. congrats, really beautiful .
Those wheels are cool as fuck
When someone with too much money builds a car with no idea what they are doing it looks like a Chinese replica 😂
