Aston Martini Review

Often referred to as the Aston Martini, or Ferrari Vantage.
Cheeky monkeys.

I still prefer the Aston to that Ferrari though it is nice inside.

That instrument pack looks absolutely horrendous, like the sort of thing you'd expect in a riced-up Nissan.

The problem with screens for a dash is they age so badly as resolutions increase. The resolution of the mark one eyeball has remained static, so a good looking dash on say a Gaydon Aston or the BMW z8 looks as gorgeous today as it did when it rolled of the factory floor.

^ This.

Is it me or is that an F Type with a horse on....and a Nissan GTR dash?

That front corner shot with the boke stood beside it made me think of an Audi TT at first glance!

Horrible front grill.
Headlights too small
Big slab of bonnet
Don't get me started on the bonnet shutline right across the front

I got the humour Neil.
You have not commented about the rear. I forget what it looks like, but might it be, to use Harry the farmer's words, too fussy ?

When invited to Rossocorsa Milano for the launch in February, I must say showing up in Ferrari-land in my Vantage attracted a fair share of eyes and compliments, later that night I even had people that wanted to see it inside and all.

The Roma itself is beautiful, quite big, interior is fine to me, with that central thingy remindful of the gated shifters. The only thing I am not too sure is that front grille. Might work in some colours, not in others. The launch car was in pearl white.

I had an extended test drive earlier this year in the Roma. It’s a great car, the engine and gearbox are superb.
If my new Vantage hadn’t depreciated so much I’d certainly change it for a Roma but I think I’ll wait to see what happens with Roma prices before moving on.
