Aston Martin DB9 or a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti?

Wouldn't touch the Maserati (well, maybe) as I have been informed that my new car is nearly ready, it has more bhp than the Maserati, accelerates faster, has a higher top speed, is more economical and is 40k cheaper, it also seats 4 comfortably (5 at a pinch) due to having 4 doors and its a bright yellow

pull young ladies that are going to make them briefly happy, then enduringly skint.

Thought that was marriage

You're getting a Lamborghini?

What's with these fugly porsches you see around these days?



I thought the whole point of a porsche was for men with midlife crises to pull young ladies that are going to make them briefly happy, then enduringly skint.

They've a got sports chassis, don't roll in the corners (unlike a LR RR), up to 500bhp, and are very reliable.

They've a got sports chassis

Ie. they shake your spine apart on every bump and are useless off-road

Each to his own.

All these supercars are well and good and I would buy one, and probably will one day, but you try driving the buggers, especially around town. You can't see tulip and they're particularly useless at parking and then when you get onto servicing, repairs and replacement parts then forget it. My brother has a Ferrari and only uses it during summer months and then very occasionally and I don't blame him especially when he told me the price of the replacement exhausts he had to get...

We've a space in the under ground car park that is currently let to my neighbour, he has a Ferrari. The streets here in Munich are not horse & cart width, I agree though driving in the UK town centres is a bugger but I'm not sure that's a problem across the EU. UK has too many cars on the road. The idea of driving through Scotland in the highlands every year really appeals.

If running costs put folks off I wonder if they can afford to be owning in the first place.

How very ugly
