Watch - Aston Martin N430 and Henry Catchpole's favourite road in the UK

It's quite a thing when the likes of Henry Catchpole picks out a favourite road in the UK. As a man who has driven some incredible cars in some incredible places, it's going to have to be very good to claim that crown.

As you might expect, it's stunning, and stunning places require stunning cars. Enter the Aston Martin N430.

The film sees Henry tell the tale of how he came to discover the incredible Old Military Road found in the Cairngorms in Scotland. It explores the beautiful winding tarmac and stunning vistas of the A93, A939 and B976, while exploring the delights of the Aston Martin N430.

Henry chose the car for the film as it sat so well with the landscape. Despite being slightly old fashioned, the manual gearbox, smaller size and combination of balance delivered all you could ever need for a stunning drive up in the Cairngorms.

We don't really want to give too much else away, so just sit back and enjoy.

Oh and if you have any suggestions for other roads you think we should drive, do let us know below.
