Coupe or Volante?

[andymadmak]

OK guys. Your views please. DB7 V12 Vantage. Coupe or Volante?

[judas]

What about a nice Maserati instead?

Coupé is definitely the better looking of the two.

Spent Sunday at Silverstone, looking at the Maseratis and the Astons. The Maser is lovely..... but my heart belongs to Martin, Aston Martin, V12............ I need a moment alone now..

I'd vote for Volante purely to enjoy the V12 noise and who can beat the feeling of wind in the hair!
O/T but was it you in the ZT with the bonnet up at the petrol station near Silverstone on Sunday? Nothing too serious I hope

Coupe. Volante Astons have always been about cruising...

[madbadger]

Coupe for the ness

[plasticpig]

Hmm difficult one. My Vote goes to the Volante. For a proper sound track ensure your purchase has the "sports exhaust" option.

Compared to an Aston V12? There isn't one.

Has to be the Coupe, the Volante DB7 looked like a pram.

But to be honest the DB7 interior isn't great, too much obvious Ford/ Jaguar, a V8 vantage is better IMHO

[Balmoral Green]

Neither.

Is there such a thing?

No V12

Volante

[mrmaggit]

Volante for me.

In British Racing Green.

Or Dark Red Metallic.

[bertie]

But the DB7 roof was a right dogs breakfast bear in mind.

[Bob the Planner]

Was it JSG who use to refer to the DB7 Aston as a 'Mostly Mondeo' ? Not sure I would go for either of the DB7s TBH. It would have to be a DB9 for me but I could be convinced if someone donated one !
