Had a short test drive in one, Very nice, paddle box isn't as instant as i thought it would be but didn't try it in sport mode. This is going to take some serious saving 
. Have to keep the bugeye for rainy day fun though.

Lol 
My brother in law lives in the same village as David Richards and I see him driving his Vanquish every so often (when he isn't in his helicopter).
Hubba Hubba, what a car!!!

Rather unimpressed by them tbh.
If it's all this lovely sandwich aluminium construction blah, why does it weigh 1800Kg or whatever ?
Two mondeo engines glued together.
Hmm, I'll take a black Murcielago thanks.

IMO, the last proper Aston Martin was the V8 Vantage.
After that it was dumbed down, cheapened, and mass produced (by their standards). The lads at Newport Pagnell reckon that too.
