The DB11 is a grower, I wasn't keen on it initially but the more I see them, the more it makes sense.
The new Vantage might be the same, for those who aren't swung by the looks. The point here though, crucially, is that I don't think there was ever a question at the launch of the Mk 1 Vantage about it not being a wonderful piece of design, at the time, let alone a decade later. That's why it stands out and why we're all fond of it I guess.
