Best Gt on the market! More refined and comfortable than the Ferrari Roma more sporty than a Maserati Granturismo more exclusive than a Porsche 911! Dream car! Compliment to Aston Martin from an Italian cars lover! Well done! 👏🏼

Your midlife comment is applicable to Ferrari Porsche Lamborghini 8 series BMW I think the sheer class of Aston compliments a handmade suit, the south of France, Vacheron Constantin Watch...so with correct Public School accent you can avoid the trying to hard vibe..I think think

This DB12 volante look's glorious in brown to me. I actually prefer the looks of Volante with the roof up than the Coupe. The rear deck sits better as a convertible. What with the fabulous new interior and Supercar performance , I'll defo take this over a Conti GT or Roma.......Excellent job Aston Martin

10:18 'Potholes ?' These don't exist here, all roads smooth like a racing track, well almost :) Road damage has been outlawed in the Netherlands. And on a Sunday evening, you can easily do 300+ on the A18, that is when the police isn't looking of course. Not that I ever did 300 anywhere, I don't have a DB12
