MONSTER MUNCH • Inspired by a brake-eating 1970s Le Mans racer and packing a 705bhp twin-turbo V12 and a manual transmission, the Valour is an Aston Martin for modern times but with bags of old-school appeal

PAST FORWARD • Singer’s latest restomod offering is a unique take on the revered Porsche 930 Turbo. Is it as good to drive as it is to look at?
