nice car but for the same money you can have a 2006 DB9 with 8000 miles on it just sold on auto trader and it's a convertible, it's actually 2k less

could not agree more,be more impressed if the parts quality of the internals were better,and its just an outdated big lump now.

That lump still powers the Vanquish, DB9 and DBS. Oh, and the LMP1 Le Mans racers!

It's as outdated as any 7yr old car. But considerably more beautiful you might agree?

There is some junk for sale on Pistonheads. 60K is expensive for a 7 year old Ford.

Do you refer to Maseratis as FIATs? It's exactly the same comparison, sat in Emblem's FIAT van I couldn't help but see where my 4200s controls had come from :)

£60k is top money but that one is a museum piece. There's always someone who 'needs' one for their collection...

Edited to add - if it wasn't for a collection, you'd be a fool to buy it over a DB9! Totally different cars...

I agree, only a sensible choice if you are not going to use the car and stick it in a museum or collection... anyone else get a DB9

Totally agree with Lewis and Andrew , this car is not a driver , anyone would be mad to drive it , other than down to their local shop or pub on a dry day and on perfect tarmac , If you had money to stash it might make a good investment in say 20 years time
