Share the love of amazing cars with this blank greeting card featuring Mark J Davey’s incredible drawing of The Muncher!


The drawing captures the 1970 Aston Martin DBS V8 RHAM/1, affectionately known as 'The Muncher". The Muncher was developed privately by racer and car dealer Robin Hamilton from the not-exactly-humble DBS V8 road car into an utter monster of a race car. It was capable of topping 200mph at Le Mans and could comfortably trade lap times with the fastest Le Mans prototypes of the day. It was named for its habit of eating through its brakes and tyres.

It was already quite an old car by the time it first raced in 1974, but that did not deter Hamilton one bit. Hamilton continued developing the car through to its ultimate specification in 1979, where it showed up at Le Mans boasting a twin-turbo engine developing 659PS in race trim and 811PS in qualifying trim. Yet, despite considerable aerodynamic development at MIRA and a phenomenal power output, the car's weight ultimately foiled its competitiveness and it burned a piston before dawn, ending its racing career.
