Aston-Martin V12 & Range Rover Velar

Cambridge (Mass.) used to be a Volvo village, back in the days of sturdy Swedish boxmobiles. (See Stanley Fish's essay,  "The Unbearable Ugliness of Volvos") But then the city cut loose its rent-control chains and went on a shopping spree. And college professors are so...over. These days, many AI guys and Start-up Princelings need an Aston Martin. Didn't Cmdr. Bond drive one, in the Sixties films?

In the books, it was a supercharged Bentley.





These days the Aston-Martin looks best with a matching Range Rover, a Velar--one species of L-R that will likely never see service on the veldt. Born Free? I don't think so. This babe was born for the better zip codes.
