Jag is thousands cheaper to buy, gets more MPG and even has better 0-60 performance. More practical aswell, why would you go for the Aston?

You go for an aston because they are great cars - fast and all that - but not for practicallity. This Aston car makes no sense. Like the Porsche Panamera just something that should not exist and especially at the price tag - IMO.

Surprised the Quattroporte hasn't been mentioned. Much rather have that than the Rapide.

XFR is lovely though, as is the XJ supersports.
you obviously have never owned a Maserati....I have....two of them.....not the most reliable of cars

Surely the Jag XK/XKR would have made a better direct comparison?
