Part 1 of this has been on you tube for ages,but part 2 never appeared either on you tube or on the evo site ,so I got quite excited when I stumbled upon this,part 1 was basically 10 minutes of the 599 ,so we were left with no review of the other 2 or any conclusion.
Sorry if its old news.

Enjoyed that Frankie, thanks for posting. I do like that chap from Evo, he's not afraid to change his mind, and he really fell for the DBS.

he reviewed the dbs when it came out on itsown,but kept comparing it unfavourably to the 599 however as he said after spending time with the dbs he changed his mind

Maybe you look a lot older?

I know harris bought a 599, which replaced a gt3 So i would guess he didn't want a gt ,but something more sporty hence the contradiction in his decision and his purchase.

His comment at the end of the video is exactly how I look at cars. I just want as many different experiences as I can find.

He said it was better than the V12Vantage, first time i have heard that about the DBS.
Still i,am not that much of a fan of the 599, i would take the DBS.

I've been driving an Aston since 26!!!!

Age is nonesense. If it appeals it appeals.
Simple.

And that chap in the video is absolutely correct. It's is the best car.
It is an Aston after all!
