Chef Gordon Ramsay is the owner of an exceptionally rare Aston Martin Valor, spotted on the streets.

– Gordon Ramsay has an enviable car collection which now includes an Aston Martin Valour.
– The iconic chef was recently spotted driving the limited-edition supercar in London’s Mayfair, UK.
– Only 110 examples are built – and they are already sold out.

Gordon Ramsay was recently spotted heading to a dinner party in his new Aston Martin Valour.

Not only is the Valor an exceptionally rare beast, but its price is quite steep.

The iconic chef parked the limited-edition car outside the Connaught Hotel in London’s Mayfair, UK, before heading inside to meet his wife, Tana.

Apparently, Gordon Ramsay only took delivery of his Aston Martin Valor about a week ago, and it’s already attracting attention.

It should not be forgotten that Ramsay’s car collection also includes a luxurious Ferrari worth $2 million.

The Hell’s Kitchen host was seen weaving his way through pedestrians who wanted to take a photo of his supercar.

And rightly so, since this car was built to celebrate 110 years of Aston Martin and only 110 examples were made.

The British luxury car manufacturer has always produced high-quality front-engined sports cars.

Some might say there’s room for improvement, but first impressions suggest the Aston Martin Valor ticks the box.

First of all, it is equipped with a bespoke six-speed manual gearbox.

Apparently, it’s the only front-engined V12 sports car available with a manual transmission.

Aston Martin has clearly thought of the purists.

And then there’s its unmistakable look, which takes inspiration from several iconic Astons.

Here we’re talking about the original V8 Vantage and the 1980 RHAM/1 “Muncher” Le Mans race car, based on the Vantage.

There are also hints of the twin-supercharged V600 Vantage, as well as touches of the One77 supercar, and even the one-of-a-kind Victor.

The fact that the Valor is so rare suggests that it will be one of the most collected Aston Martins.

It’s a shame they’re already sold out, but if you were lucky enough to get your hands on one, you were treated to a mouth-watering end-of-era spec .

For the first time, the automaker has paired its epic 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 with a bespoke six-speed manual gearbox.

You also get a bespoke suspension, with adaptive dampers, springs and anti-roll bars designed specifically for the car.

Add to that the Valor’s custom body structure, which includes front and rear shear panels, rear suspension strut braces, and fuel tank braces.

It even comes standard with carbon ceramic brakes that are mounted on lightweight 21-inch forged honeycomb rims.

The interior is also special, with a timeless two-seater cockpit typically Aston Martin.

It’s a traditional wool tweed inspired by the seat covers of Aston Martin’s 1959 Le Mans-winning DBR1.

These elements contrast wonderfully with the high-tech weave of carbon fiber used for the shells of the high-performance and lightweight seats, the tailor-made door cards, the dashboard air vents, the upper part of the central console and the transmission tunnel.

Typical of the brand, the Valor is extremely customizable.

For example, you can choose from machined aluminum, titanium, carbon fiber, or walnut for the shift knob.

Gordon Ramsay could have had a field day speculating on its value.
