No it isn't Jack; it's called 'live and let live' and different people having different tastes and wants. You just carry on in your inimitable way however. I prefer to praise/admire what I like only and reserve judgement on anything else .... unless riled and then I guess "Bolshy" appears. Thats why he loves meeee.... isnt that right Boshers  ......personal choice for me over the Bristol would of been the Alvis21 td te mmmmmmmmmmm maybe i should look for a RED one has Hopwoods suggested colour to the fleet. Of course I do

Aston prices seem to be sinking like lead balloons. Depreciation on a Rapide is clearly horrid.
Risking a public stoning here but I like the Panamera more.

I know, it's terrible  I'm not at all a fan of the outside but the inside is lovely and a Turbo went by me as if I was standing still on a country road when I most certainly wasn't! I just can't get my head round the Rapide being a stretched DB9, whereas the Panamera is its own thing. Ugly, yes, but its own thing.

Nick, do you have a copy of Classic and Sportscar Nov 2003? If not, I'll save it for you - drives of a couple of your favourite 'cats'...

Must admit the Rapide is nice but doesn't really excite me. If I needed/wanted such a car I'd go Panamera as well. If I still couldn't have a Bentley of course

I agree that AML styling has been very generic and it seems that finally they are doing something about it ('Scuse the cross-posting!). But remove the comparison, forget the usual Porker competence and view the Panamera in its own right - nuff said?  Cheers Brian

Yes, tis true, but then again if I had Panamera money I wouldn't be looking at either as they don't really do it for me... I do think the 'new' Vanquish looks fabulous, speaking about samey design. Much sharper Unfortunately I had a run-in with a DB7 driver today who exemplified the worst kind of Bond wannabe
