Countach or Vantage

[williamp]

Saw these two in a pub carpark yesterday. Rivals in their day, with similar performance but very different ways of delivering that performance. If you had the means...

[SEE YA]

Aston for me, Its in my top five cars along with my one.

I bet the Aston, had to guide him back into the parking space ?

Aston for me too,even though they wouldn't be used as daily's I can imagine the Countach would get tiring to drive even on the odd day you take it out.

You would of got a different answer though when I was a nipper in the early 80's!

Lamborghini for me please, oh the sound

My first thought is that you'd look a bit of a tit driving the Countach, whereas the AM oozes class (admittedly a very playboy class ). OTOH the Countach would make me giggle. A lot.

Dunno in short, it'd be nice to be in the position to choose though.

ETA All three of my kids say the Countach.

[aspirated]

A friends father has a Countach in that colour, but I've only ever seen it side on so not sure of the plate....

Beautiful cars, would have to be Countach for me

[Monty Python]

Have to be the Aston - at my age I doubt I could contort myself to get into a Countach, and the seats are awful.

[dowahdiddyman]

Would have to be the Aston, it just shouts `class` the Lambo while stunning just shouts `look at me`. and looks so dated and dare I say it a bit kit car.

[Fire99]

Countach... Just.

The interesting thing about the Countach is how big and imposing it was when I was a kid. When I saw one up close fairly recently, it was actually quite small compared to how much the average family car has expanded.

[POORCARDEALER]

Lambo for me, total drama

[budfox]

Aston without a moment's hestitation. The other thing just says "I'm a wealthy chav".

[Shaw Tarse]

Aston.

[Gary C]

Aston looks so old mans car.

Lamborghini looks like rock stars car.

If it's looks, which one would you prefer to look like ?

But for me, I would take the one that's most fun to drive, so it would be a 930 for me.

[k-ink]

The Aston is sheer class.

The countach is a massive windscreen wiper with a hideous body kit.

[pwd95]

Very difficult to chose ...

Hard one. I would say Countach for that weekend blast and Vantage for everyday use.

[Mastodon2]

Countach, Countach, Countach.

[I'm Rick james]

HAS to be the Aston. What a gorgeous looking car.

Countach please.

What a great car.

[NickM450]

Countach for me please, but the very last anniversary ones with all the bodykit etc.

Have to disagree with this comment. It's to old to be bought by the chavs, as well as it being the wrong marque.
