DB11 - WITH LESS DISGUISE

[Jon39]

This registration mark is at present shown to be on a black car, September 2015, 5935cc.

Are we therefore looking at another computer picture?

[Jon39]

I made my comment about the DVLA website showing the number plate on a N/A V12.

Now see that the photo claims to be taken of a DB11, whilst filming a promotional video in Spain.

Perhaps we are looking at the real car.

Hope it's just the pic -- the overall shape looks good, but I don't like the DBX-like roof at all.

Don't worry. The options list is an excellent way to increase the purchase cost. We all fall for that game. If you do not like the contrasting colour of the side roof rails, there will probably be a cost option - Body colour roof rails £1,000.

I expect you have spotted the rear spoiler that dissects the rear lights. Better downforce?

Yet another picture from the internet.

Perhaps it is the picture but the proportions of the grill looks a bit weird to me. Not sure I will be rushing up to Bristol to see one - when they eventually open!

After my moaning about the front appearance of the DB10, I am happy if the DB11 front does look like this.
It reminds me of a Zagato model.

I'd expect it to have Keyless Go if it's using MB electronics....

Car thieves (I have only read you understand) use a signal scanner or OBD gadget, to ply their dishonest trade.

Is this still a risk for owners of Keyless Entry cars?

Autocar have again described the option of a manual gearbox for the DB11.

I had a new Merc S classes a courtesy car for a few days. The interior was horrid. I really hope the binnacle screen is the only thing that carries across

You must be referring to this disjointed muddle.
Probably had ten committees on that job, and they never met together once
(and I do own a Mercedes-Benz).
My attention is being drawn to all those gaudy air vents.






This design however is not cluttered at all. It is beautifully laid out, with pure simplicity and class.

yet over on the Lagonda Taraf thread people are slating the Aston interior and showing pics of ghastly Mercedes interiors as examples of how a quality inside should look.

A Lagonda Taraf thread eh.

Are these people all owners of a Taraf?
If so, I will allow them to have any opinion concerning dashboard design, and be very grateful that they have each given Aston Martin £685,000.

At this rate, the DBX will no longer be needed. -
