Road Presence

[V8V CG]

"Presence" may be another and good word for "beauty". I had been looking forward to seeing the F-Type at my Aston Martin/Jaguar dealer, but when I did my first thought was "I couldn't love you like I do my Aston Martin". I agree with Riccardino; I could certainly love an E-Type or an XK120 (or 130 or 150), but not the F-Type.

No one has said that

I know but still nobody is mentioning other cars. It was just courious to see what else would attract the attention of an Aston owner

As you seem to have missed my post earlier, here is what I said:

Sadly, JLR has succumbed to bling since it came under new ownership. Just look a the faux bonnet and side vents on the new RR Sport. Cheap, tacky and totally unnecessary.

unfortunately there are a lot of people out there that measure the value of their car by how many vents and trinkets are on it

whilst i think that the vantage has more road presence than an f type , i reckona db9 has more than the vantage

Hardly difficult considering the Cygnet has more presence than the Vantage

You guys have not taken into account it's not just the car it's also who's driving it.

Nope, you are confusing road presence with pipe smoke

Yeah but the perspective changes when you can actually see over the steering wheel

It's a natural progression just add the slippers as you upgrade

You've not been around here long then. The younger, better looking, debonair Vantage owners versus the pipe smoking, slipper wearing, faint smell of wee DB9 owners.

Neil, do you just cut and paste that every time....or do you forget that you have posted it already?

Jas, it's called cylinder envy. Oh and he falls over and starts talking rubbish after a half of bitter.

If I look at the Jag past then I would say E-Type and XK120

Agreed
