Used DB11 or old DBS?
Discussion
Hi Guys,
Interested to hear people's thoughts on whether, give the choice in the used market, you would go for the 'new generation' DB11, or a the last generation DBS (of Casino Royale fame)?
Having looked at the DBS in the past, prices seem to be softening a little and you can get a nice car for around £80k (probably with around 20-25k miles). On the other hand you then have the V12 DB11 with all the updated tech, build quality etc, for as little as £100k now (2016/17 models).
Personally I am rather torn - like the idea of the newer car, but at the same time I feel like the DBS is just the more special car IMO. I have warmed to the DB11 styling a lot and I think it does have presence, but can't help but feel the DBS has the edge...

Own a DBS (TT - had a manual previously) and have driven the DB11 V8 for a few hours. It has better dynamics in every single way and I can't wait to try the V12 AMR. DBS is still better looking and the interior feels more special but in terms of build quality, ride, infotainment, steering etc the 11 has it.
Nobody can really say how the depreciation curve will be when you compare a newer DB11 with low mileage to a DBS with 25k on the clock.
Thanks that is really helpful! I’ve test driven the DBS but haven’t tried the DB11 yet. Guess that is the next thing to do!Nobody can really say how the depreciation curve will be when you compare a newer DB11 with low mileage to a DBS with 25k on the clock.
