GWYNEDD’S natural beauty is being used by prestigious car manufacturer Aston Martin to launch its latest supercar, the DB11 AMR.

The £175,000 car, which has a top speed of 208mph and goes from 0-62mph in 3.7 seconds, took to the roads and beaches of Snowdonia as part of its official launch.

Imagery used to promote the launch shows the sleek supercar, which is the fastest in Aston Martin’s range, showcases Snowdonia’s roads as well as Morfa Bychan beach.

A couple of cars were taken for a spin along Morfa Bychan beach with Criccieth Castle clearly visible in the background, showcasing the area’s natural beauty to the world.

This new Aston Martin replaces the outgoing V12-engined DB11 as the new flagship of the DB11 range.
