The best Aston Martin gifts

The International series of Aston Martins were produced between 1929 and 1931. Engineer and racer A.C. Bertelli saved Aston from receivership in 1925 and along with a small group, developed a couple of racers destined for Le Mans. They were called the LM1 and LM2 and entered the 24h race in 1928, but unfortunately didn't finish.

The International was introduced as a more usable, road-going version of the Le Mans racers, using the same 1.5 litre 4-cylinder engine with a pair of SU carburettors. It really was a case of drive to the circuit, race, and then drive home. The car depicted on this hoodie is a 1930 model with racing history at Brooklands before living a life in Scotland until 1939. It eventually made its way to Canada where it would be restored to original form.

The International was later replaced by the Ulster which would then become popular racers in their own right. But nevertheless, this is a very cool way to wear a bit of Aston Martin history that has a story to tell.

In a total shake up to convention, another Aston that wasn't the DB5 returned to the Bond franchise after a hiatus. The V8 coupe used in The Living Daylights roared away from its storage unit in No Time To Die.

Corgi were happily able to provide a scale model of it. Unfortunately, it hasn't been winterised - meaning those optional extras that Dalton had aren't present in this car. There isn't even a Cello, sadly. All of this would make an escape from Bratislava especially difficult.

Plenty of merchandise is available in regard to the most famous Aston of them all. But we reckon the quirkiest comes in the form of the Playmobil version.

Not only do you get the car and a really bad representation of Sean Connery. But you get Auric Goldfinger, Oddjob, one of the henchmen, a pair of binoculars, and some bars of gold. Useful because you can then give Mr Goldfinger his return game.

Upon launch of the DB9, Aston Martin quickly decided to go racing with it. The result was the monstrous DBR9. It used the same basic 6.0 litre V12, but sounded completely unrecognisable compared to the road going version. The sheer scream that came from those things was simply heavenly.

Being a slot car, you don't get any V12 noises here. But one seriously cool aspect about this Gulf liveried DBR9 is that it shows dirt across the bodywork gathered from racing. If you want a slot car that's as close as you can get to the real thing, this is seriously it.

A simple and effective way of remembering exactly what the basic specs were for the DB5 upon launch. This decorative print will look great anywhere in your home, and is simultaneously tasteful.

It's available in either black or white and the car is finished in Silver Birch. Naturally, considering the hint of the famous BMT 216A number plate.

For the 2015 Bond film Spectre, Aston Martin made a set of movie-only DB10 models for filming. They were designed to preview what would become the V8 Vantage from 2018-on.

The DB10 and indeed the Vantage still divide opinion to this day. But if you are after a print, this is the one for you. You can choose the size of canvas you like from A4 to... well huge, and it should look great in any home.

Carroll Shelby crafted his highlight moment in motorsport behind the wheel of an Aston. Specifically, a DBR1 racer which he and Roy Salvadori piloted through the night and day to beat Ferrari at the Le Mans 24h in 1959.

It's a victory that Aston still reference to this day with cars like the DBS 59 Edition along with million-pound open top speedsters. But most of us don't have tens of millions lying in the bank, but you can celebrate it yourself by hanging this piece of wall art in your garage.

The modern V8 Vantage from 2005-18 gave Aston the desperate boost that it needed. It and the DB9 launched Aston into the thrust of the 21st century and desirability was at an all time high. It quickly became the best-selling Aston in the line up, and understandably so.

You can personalise the print of this one by writing your own text in the registration plate. So, if you know someone who loves the Vantage, then their name can be embodied in it. A perfect gift if you asked us.

Lego's Speed Champion series is gaining more and more popularity as more cars are being released. Given that Ferrari, McLaren, and Lamborghini have jumped on the boat, Aston were bound to do so as well.

This twin set of the V8 Vantage GT3 and Valkyrie AMR Pro is perfect for a younger petrolhead to indulge themselves with on their birthday or Christmas. We just wish the designs were a little more accurate.
