Just keeping an eye out at the moment. A QP GTS seems possibly a better option than a Rapide but I guess I'll have to drive both to see.You lucky git. I have my eye on a Rapide. I am very tempted.
When I come to actually having the time to driving a car I would like to try one.

I get the impression the Rapide is a bit tight on space at the rear and not a real 4 seater.
Spot on, Aston’s are claustrophobic at best as our DB9 shows with wedding guests.
Mine isn’t. Mind you, mine doesn’t pretend to have four seats! I take it the DB9’s a bit of a squeeze; more a 2+2 than a four-seater? I’ve never driven or been in a Rapide, but they do little for me aesthetically.
I sat in a 488 earlier this year and found that the Ferrari interior as sublime. No dash satnav or excessive buttons to clutter the interior, everything is controlled from the steering wheel .But the 458 is interior was designed by Fisher Price. Always find modern Ferrareis over styled inside compared to the elegant minimalistic say McLaren....Old Vantage is beautiful inside but the new one has taken a leaf out of Ferrari Fisher Price design and is a mess......DB9 is not great in the back but it never need more than a 2 plus 2 and not a four seater in the sense of the word. Aston call it a 2 plus 2.
Same as the 458. Andy must be confusing it....I sat in a 488 earlier this year and found that the Ferrari interior as sublime. No dash satnav or excessive buttons to clutter the interior, everything is controlled from the steering wheel .
