Hi everyone, I currently have an Aston V12 Vantage SM I have had its for a year and it’s my 4th V12.

I am thinking of a change and like the looks of the 570S anyone owned both or have a view of the differences?

I rather like this car, does anyone know it’s history?

Went to look at the car at Rybrook Bristol this morning. First off, a very impressive showroom and a very helpful salesman - Steve.

The car is drop dead gorgeous and made the Vantage look quite plain and dated by comparison (never thought I write that) it was very well prepped and presented immaculately.

Test drive was fun. The cabin is very comfortable and noise levels are far less the the Aston. Everything worked as it should with no dramas. It was docile and tractable in traffic with just a hint of what’s on tap once the roads warm up and there was no salesman sitting next to me.

Straight line performance figures are very similar but it’s clear even after 30 mins of chugging around that the chassis is a lot taughter and the steering is more responsive.

I am very tempted...
