Vantage Test Drive Diary
Discussion
How did it go Cirks? I had mine this morning in bright sunshine.
The car was quiet, smooth and very well put together. It is a joy to sit in and amazingly easy to drive.
Its a quick car but not ferociously quick. I spent some time trying to release the snarling beast within, but only found a pussycat. This car will be very easy to live with and could easily be used as a daily driver.
The salesperson was trying to persuade me that the car had a split personality, coming alive over 4000rpm, which is true to a certain extent. I just wish the split was a bit wider.
Loved it though!

Just get it above 4k revs, if kept below, you will not get the overall impression of the car
Even above 4k it is so refined. I agree with almost everything Cirks said, it lacks thrills. I drove a Tuscan convertible last weekend and that delivered in spades.
However, it is an expensive and desirable car and when you consider residuals, the cost of ownership of the Aston should be quite low, compared to a TVR.
