Unique Aston Martin CC100 Concept

Aston Martin has created a one-off sports car as part of its 100 year anniversary celebrations.

The new Speedster concept was unveiled at the infamous ASAC Zurich 24 Hours of Nurburgring race, driven by CEO Dr Ulrich Bez.

Dr Bez said, “the CC100 is the epitome of everything that is great about Aston Martin. It represents our fantastic sporting heritage, our exceptional design capability, our superb engineering know-how and, above all, our adventurous spirit!

“I have nicknamed it ‘DBR100’ because of its affinity to the great 1959 race-winning cars and, of course, our 100-year anniversary in 2013.

“But this car is more, even, than a simple birthday present to ourselves: it shows that the soul of Aston Martin – the thing that differentiates us from all the other car makers – is as powerful as ever.”

Oliver has been outstanding throughout the entire process, from the initial speculative enquiry I made, to a week after completion when he called me to check everything was ok with my new car.   I’ve found him to be highly professional and knowledgeable, very attentive, responsive and helpful throughout and generally a real pleasure to deal with.  

Additionally Clare Webb provided great support in turning around the various materials promptly, she was also very friendly and has a great telephone manner.

In short I’m a  very happy customer, one that has an excellent value for money product and over-riding memories of great customer experience.  I will definitely use the services of Oracle Finance in the future and will be an advocate for them with all of my friends and colleagues.
