I bought a SF90 from some poor bloke who wife was going to leave him if he didn’t get rid of the car. 60% off stickers

They are like this because people sit on their phones and crash at any given opportunity... So we make cars to cater to stupid people, most people don't have the first clue how to do all those things you've listed as "driving aids" so that's why they are there. If your a driver then buy an older car only way to avoid this crap now hahaha 🤣

I own my 458 Spider for 6 years now and put a little under 50,000 miles on it so far. I can confirm that the ownership is magic. By the way my car looks just like yours, rosso corsa with black interior and yellow calippers.

Got to love an Aston, especially a V12. Gorgeous car and sound..... Time has been a bit harsh on auto gear changes and duality of handling (ability to be both GT and sports car-ish) Nowadays 1700kg would be deemed almost light..... Use the rear seats for luggage and soft bags for the boot...... A lot of car for the money....... A couple of familiar roads there from my driving youth Nice video

Thank you Tom…you are absolutely right, time is a harsh master for many of the old classic luxury cars. It is always important to evaluate them based on their period. Still one of the best looking GTs that successfully bridged the gap between sports car and GT.

Absolute rubbish. Have you ever actually drive a 360 CS? It is one of the most exhilarating of Ferrari experiences. I have drive 20+ Ferrari and the 360 CS is my favourite. People can do as they please. But making a standard 360 try to look like a CS is terrible in our opinion, and always looks as it is, fake.

Had a 2008 model for 2.5 years now and love it to bits. I definitely see it as a sportier GT than say a Bentley continental. Mine has the later sports pack suspension which is better than earlier models but the shocks still leak eventually. The secret to loading the boot is soft bags, can easily pack enough for a week abroad and we have used it in Europe every year. It only gets positive attention and is not bad on fuel considering what it is.

Sounds like you have really gelled with your DB9, that's really cool to hear. Have you had many reliability issues apart from the known issue with the original shocks?

@ no nothing really apart from servicing. It is the kind of car where it’s beneficial if you can do your own tinkering. I’ve had to re-seal the rear lights as they are known to collect water and fail but mechanically it has been 100% reliable.

After completing these upgrades there really isn’t much in it at all. Mostly prestige of owning the CS and having the OEM stripped out interior which does look much better.

I love how you’re still actively replying to comments. Couple questions for you. I’m in Canada and a nice 2018 720s, full carbon 1-2-3, Memphis red just came on the market for $255k CAD with 22,000km. Should I continue to wait? Every month I’ve been looking, everything seems to be continuing to drop. Also second question, I’m looking for amazing thrill with least depreciation, would you recommend 720 or 488 or 458 or F8. Every video I see people say out of these cars the 720 is by far the most adrenaline filled experience, but the Ferrari gives you the prestige. Which one are you picking? Also McLaren in Canada will give full warranty for $7000 so reliability im not worried about.
@RichReviews_
@RichReviews_ 6 күн бұрын
Hey thanks for engaging...720 for the thrills for sure but 458 for value retention, brand prestige and engagement...you simply cannot beat the 458 for reliability, NA sound, engagement and looks. We provide services to help people procure their own Sports/Supercar including Support Comms (Calls/Texts/Emails) whereby you'll have me at the end of the phone to support you. Let me know if this is something you would be interest in. Good luck and most of all...enjoy the journey as well as the end drive! :)

The Aston Martin DB9 retailed at around £95k new and when reviewing the secondhand market they are now available from around £15k…that’s incredible value for an Aston! Here we review the DB9 to understand whether this incredibly priced V12 is a sports car as often marketed or more in reality, a Grand Tourer. Do you see the DB9 as a Sports Car or Grand Tourer?...

My storage net failed shortly after receiving the i4 Emira in March of this year. I assumed Lotus would replace the net foc at it's first service due to the weak design. Instead I'll just repair it. Thanks for telling everyone how to repair and improve the weak point. It's the only failure I've had so far in my 5,000 miles since new and I'm loving every moment and every mile I drive this car.
