As a couple of you have Kindly encouraged me to share my experiences of a new Marque, I will attach some photos and initial impressions. I grudgingly moved from Italian Works of art to something a bit more usable. As one of my colleagues said - it may be more usable- but it doesn't blend in! I am not sure in this spec and colour combination many non car lovers would have any idea what it was. Its very stealth and has the most carbon / black options I have ever seen.
2018 DB11. 2000 miles. V8. Black with Red callipers and red contrast stitching. Carbon Badge pack plus Carbon interior and exterior bodykit packs. Exterior black pack, clouded tail lights etc. Interior black pack including satin black metal paddles and satin black metal on the dash. All the tech upgrades.The most luxurious seats I have ever sat in, and a stereo to die for. 192 list price.
I was more excited to have it delivered than either of my Ferraris for some reason. All my family and friends were certainly more receptive to it. Sadly, I think I will have to stop looking on auto trader for at least 12-18 months until the Portofino comes into a reasonable price range and I can consider it as a replacement. The top gear review sums it up - the DB11 will make you look cool even if you aren't. So its the perfect car for the time being!
Thoughts appreciated. Any mention of the Superleggera will be ignored. My wife wouldn't let me.
