    Great model, legendary car.. The Aston never stops to impress. But, as you pointed out Nick, British Hand-Made does still not mean that things DON’T fall off the car, or immediately start rusting away once you leave the showroom. I think that’s sad and a ‘blamage’, considering the name of the brand and the wagonload of money you need to buy one. Porsche has its ‘nicks and dings’ too (lol), sometimes. But I think I would stick to Porsche. Forever (young)! Thanks for another great review, Murray-Style, have a good summer with lots of car-trips! Cheers, Irwin (btw Nick, are you on LinkedIn?)

    Hmmm... Since you did a direct comparison to the C4S, I would go for the Porsche. Much more open feeling, better viability, and I think it sounds better. 12s do sound great, but that flat six does it for me. That forward viability is like the 308. I'm positive I'm going to bash both wings every time I pull it in the garage. For the same price would you have the DB11 or C4S?

      Levent Ergün No, they released the Vanquish replacement - a different market sector. But, more importantly, they also released the DB11 AMR, which is an embarrassingly quick update (and replacement) to the DB11, which now has better suspension tuning, revised transmission mapping, and 630bhp. It's also, in my opinion at least, better looking than the new DBS.
