Vanquish advice please?!
Discussion
Hi all,
Long time since I visited this forum. I owned a DB9 between 2009 - 2011 but swapped it for a Range Rover when I got a dog!!
Anyway, fast forward to now and I currently have a 2013 Bentley GTC V8 which is a fantastic car but I am getting itchy feet to rejoin the Aston fold. Have always loved the Vanquish and am seriously considering one - total budget is around £150k.
To any owners out there can you tell me any pros and cons -
I live in Central London but will mainly use the car on motorways and country roads. A bit concerned about the practicality of the huge front diffuser both in Town and on country roads.
Is there a new model planned in the next few years after the introduction of the DB11?
Any help appreciated.
Cheers!

bunnyman, whereabouts do you live in central London? I'm in King's Cross. Come down and I'll take you for a drive... 
Having acquired a Vanquish myself a couple of weeks ago and having owned a Bentley Continental GT in the past I can tell you the Vanquish is far more enjoyable to drive, it looks better, sounds better, handles better, feels lighter and has a better image.
Yet it can still be smooth (I'd say 80% of the comfort of the Bentley) by choosing the appropriate suspension and power modes.
Thanks for your offer, very good of you.Having acquired a Vanquish myself a couple of weeks ago and having owned a Bentley Continental GT in the past I can tell you the Vanquish is far more enjoyable to drive, it looks better, sounds better, handles better, feels lighter and has a better image.

I am going abroad for the next few weeks but will PM you on my return.
