@ Viking: You're right, all I see behind the ACs are Aston Martins, and Ford GT40s and Ferraris in the background.

It looks like the row behind the ACs are for Aston Martins. From right to left it looks like a 1991ish Virage, 1969ish DBS, another Virage, and I think another DBS or V8 with the boot open. These are all kinda guesses on my part.

@ Fangio Man: I think that's another Aston Martin behind the AC, too.

@Shaggy
I think it is an older Virage. ;)

BTW. There is a gorgeous Ford GT40 in the background, and lots of other legendary machines.

AC awes0ME. ;)

Looks like an excellent competitor to the Lancia Stratos. But shamefully, this British masterpiece didn't become a legend, but it deserves such status.
