Aston Martin Cygnet in Gulf Livery – Click above to enlarge<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nAston Martin<\/a> is an automaker with a history that’s indelibly linked with racing… not to mention beautiful styling, attractive colors and, um, James Bond. But the British automaker has more recently signaled its intent to be known for offering a lavishly equipped fuel efficient city car that focus solely on transportation duties and not 0 to 60 times or top speeds.<\/p>\n

Mostly. A quick run through the automaker’s website<\/a> shows that its not willing to let the Cygnet degrade its performance and racing image entirely. To wit, the little urban commuter is pictured in a number of scenarios that don’t exactly scream “efficient transportation.” For instance, there’s an orange-helmeted Stig lookalike posing with the Aston in one scene.<\/p>\n

Note too that the Cygnet can be customized with three different racing-derived paint schemes, two of which focus on the classic British Racing Green of Aston Martin’s current racers and a third that shows the Cygnet painted up in iconic Gulf livery. Feel free to check it out for yourself at AstonMartin.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
