Well for some reason my Oil Cooler has sprung an expensive leak, thankfully a £2.5 - £3k job under warranty. It make take a few days/up to a week to fix they say.
So why don't you use this for the week they say?
Oh My Lord! I still have to be convinced by the styling (not Aston like, shock of the new) BUT WHAT A DRIVE!
Make no mistake this a fantastic, fantastic, fantastic car.

Cool number plate too







Can anyone put this the right way up?

Certainly beats the XF I usually get. Of course, you know they want you to fall in love and keep it. Sadly, that approach has worked with me on my other cars.

I do like the DB11, but dont love it.

Its like a mistress, bit of fun for a while, but not a keeper.....

I prefer my Vantage or your very nice Virage smile

I must admit, I love the colour. There is thread on here showing the GT8 in the same colour and it looks fabulous.

Shame I'm not in Newcastle for a couple of weeks or I'd be down having a looksy cool

I feel like I'm in the minority on here but I love the DB11, I think its beautiful from just about every angle. And the interior doesn't offend me either, even like the little stand alone screen.

Here you go James!




Sometimes the DB11 can look a bit awkward in photos, depending on the angle, lens etc, but then so too can a Vantage if you're not careful, but it is a "classic" and we can forgive the odd, odd shot because we know it so well. I find that the 11 is a different proposition when I see it live, it looks clean and complete.
That iPad though...

It actually looks nice in that colour. If I were in the market for a big GT, I'd be tempted but I wouldn't replace mine for this. I like small and nimble combined with a NA V12. Took mine for a drive today, what a car!

Same here, the back is a little fussy but I've seen a couple up close and they look so much better than they photo.

I want one!
