I have had use of a 2018 DBS Superleggera all of this week (my car is in for a little bit of work)
And I can honestly say it's the most phenomenal car I have ever had the pleasure to drive. This model was completely off my radar until I got home after the first drive, then I did some research - WOW what a car! 715 BHP and a rival to the 812 Superfast. When I put it in sport plus and floored it, all hell broke loose. but still a gentleman's carriage in 'GT' mode. Further more it managed 29.8 MPG on my commute to the office this morning. The icing on the cake is that I learned that a Volante version exists - I need to start saving !!!

Yes, I do love it too. For comparison, what is your current Aston?

I can't imagine wanting a faster car than the DBS S.

It felt like moving into hyperspace - just a bit more, that scary bit more, than I expected. A hooligans car.

Loved it.

GG33 your Vanquish is just lovely!

The white DBS is obviously gorgeous as well, well except for those awful brake callipers.
