yeah pretty good show.

although the Aston looked great, I didn't like the exhaust note, it sounded like a piece of plastic vibrating.

neven been a fan of porsches.

they looked funny the 3 of them standing in the rain with all their umbrellas folded out the wrong way!

and Hammond was funny when he was talking about the brakes on the 911, then said "James, you're a tw*t"

that Ascari looked quite good. anyone know the piece of music they used when he was driving it? sounds a bit like Leftfield, the tune was on one of the FIFA games a few years back. it was only a few seconds.

I'd take the BMW any day. The Aston was just too plain for me, and Hammond summed it up well when he said "it's a footballer's car".

The Porsche was...well, a Porsche. They're great but they are 40 years old.

The BMW, on the other hand.....delicious.

It's the Veyron. They've finally got it so that it won't kill you if you decide to start the engine.

i know style is a matter of opinion, but that BMW for me is just horrible.

The Aston is so understated, so elegant, its perfect looking! I'd have that or the porsche, but you can keep the boring bmw.

Aston is nice, but a bit pointless isnt it? Whats wrong with a DB9? Which i prefer!

I suppose, but i love the db9 look, whether it be in the uber v8 from today's show, or the standard db9. This one's faster, so shotgun that. :D

I prefer the origional DB9. IMO, it doesnt need massive speed, its for lovely twisty highland roads or just motorway cruising :)

If i had the money for db9's and what not, i wouldn't buy one. Or a lambo, or ferrari or w/e. I'd buy a couple of really decent, cheaper cars. Like and evo or bowler wild cat! Just imo

I couldnt have an evo.

For me, an expensive car should be comfortable, luxurious, fast and good looking. Anytrhing less and I couldn't justify the cost as its got to be the perfect package.

That's why these Grand Tourer cars, like the db9, the M6 etc are so good. And that's why for me, there wouldnt be anything close to a db9 all round.

Evo depends what your going to do with it. the FQ400 is a track car. With the lower ones like the 320s they would work as an every day car.

i find the 911's just too plain and boring-looking.

the DB9 looks awesome.

is the V8 Vantage simply just a smaller version of the DB9?

i think the 6 series BMW looks pretty good in real life. a bit weird styling, but i like it.

for the M versions, i'd still have the 'older' M5 or M3, don't like the new range.

I think I'd take the 911.

That BMW is just boring..and if you want an Aston get the DB9.


What I really want to know though, is what's on that bit of paper Jeremy uses to "stop those two talking rubish"?
