Vantage Roadster or Coupe

[zvezdah]

So I've ordered the definitive guide for Aston's by Grant.

I did have a question. The Vantage coupe is gorgeous, but I love the top down on the roadster. Is this a manual or electric top? I can't seem to find it mentioned in the reviews I looked at. Reason for asking. A few years ago, looking at a Maserati GT roadster, which had a top replacement and cost $17000! For the motors, top, etc. And same goes for the 360 Modena. Ideally a manual roof is better in terms of maint and repair.

Thanks!
Chris

Electric roof 17 second at speeds up to 30 mph
I've had two and NEVER come across a roof failure with anyone in 5 years
The ECU can throw a wobbler and there is a wear point you need to check

Other than that very reliable even when it gets used EVERY time the car gets used

What is that yellow car?
It might be a VW Beetle Convertible.
