Future Aston Martin Valkyrie Owners Are Ordering Backup Engines In Droves

Ex-Formula 1 driver Nico Rosberg recently had the opportunity to spec out his dream Aston Martin Valkyrie and has revealed a handful of previously-unknown details about the forthcoming hypercar.

Rosberg himself doesn’t have a Valkyrie on order but was still granted the opportunity to design his perfect one at one of the world’s largest Aston Martin dealerships.

I guess that is the issue with these short run hyper expensive autos. Do you believe parts will be available in the future to service or to replace certain items that wear out? McLaren seems to still sell parts for the F1. I wonder how many other vendors are doing the same?

Cannot remember exact details but read somewhere that these engines have to be rebuilt after low miles and have a short engine life. My recollection is something like 15,000 and 30,000 respectively.

Isn't that engine life typical for Astons?

Perhaps now that Geely is acquiring them, quality can improve.
