Moto Guzzi I didn’t even know people still got married. It’s 2020, what is the purpose of seeking out a mate? For reproduction? There are like 8 billion people on the planet.

As a Rapide owner, thank you for making the world aware of how cool and fun this car is. Of note, the service at 40,000 and 70,000 miles is when the spark plugs need to be changed which adds an additional labour cost as the inlet manifold needs to be removed. Also the throttle body has to be undone to access the oil filter which is in an awkward position. Great presentation. I struggled where to put the owners manual and ended putting it in the door pocket like you showed.

Then there is sports mode and adaptive damping. You missed quite a lot.

Everything is a goddamn 6 I don't know why he even rates that category. It all falls on the continuum of "this car is kind of crap but you can probably afford one" to "this car costs more than your house or even your entire neighbourhood but its pretty awesome". Both extremes get a....6/10

As for the “poor Garmin GPS”. I had a 2009 Volvo V70 D5, and the very same GPS system was installed in it, with a sliding out screen and 2 remotes. So, even using it in 2016 was a very intuitive, precise, full of preinstalled POIs and easy to use GPS system. I may assume, for that period, 2009-2011 it was one of the best solutions on the market. Please remember - these were the days of iPhone 3G, 3Gs and early 4. Google Maps were just released in September 2008 and only for Android and iOS. There were no sign of Android or Car Play. American cars still offered a cassette deck those days, Lexus in particular :) So, during those times it was hard to expect anything special, compared to our days. But even at those times, this GPS system supported traffic info and route recalculation according to traffic conditions and this still works in Germany (tested myself in 2018). Even a 2019 Audi requires you to download a separate app, which is laggy and works only if it is active on screen every time, in order for you to get traffic and POI info. So, I wouldn’t be that much sarcastic about it. ;)

[@alexvoissard6497]

@@apache1234657 While you are correct that for MY2012-19 Aston Martin used Garmin GPS units in the Rapide and Rapide S, from MY2010-2011, they used a Volvo GPS and Stereo system straight out of a 2007-2013 C30 or 2003-2014 XC90.

17:00 it's because it's actually two Ford Duratec V6s (what you find in older escapes, fusions, etc) put together. The Duratec is 2970cc so it's called a 3.0L, added together makes it 5935cc which should be a 5.9, but they likely just went with 3+3=6

I think the windows go down a bit to make opening and closing the doors a bit easier and more comfortable. The car is probably quite air tight, so slamming the doors closed might give a pressure "shock" to the passengers. Also, opening will be easier (think of the initial resistance of a fridge door when pulling the handle).

[@Sawbuck]

More likely the design made the windows rattle when you shut it if they were higher. Can't have that in an Aston.

I can’t think of a better car for Doug to feature than the Rapide, being a car so full of quirks. It seems Aston Martin went out of their way not to make the car conventional. Even the new Lagonda is more conventional. That said this is always been one of my favorite cars because IMO it is one of the most beautiful that I’ve seen, and because it didn’t sell very well(as Doug said) it is pretty rare.I fell in love with it when Saabkyle04 did an in-depth tour back in 2011. Never knew that used ones could be had so cheap! Thanks for doing this one Doug!

[@grantmiller253]

Will never forget the first time I saw one in the wild. Gstaad, CH; 2017 NYE. “Parked” (nosed-in, a meter deep, with engine running) in a snowdrift in front of The Palace hotel’s entry, windows down, in the midst of heavy snowfall… it was easy to determine which bar patron was responsible… should have taken it off his hands, in retrospect. Leaving after two rounds of beverages, it was in the same spot, still running. The only difference being the four inches of snow accumulated in the driver seat…

[@GeneraLigma]

The same can be said for all of the "used bargain" videos you do.... As soon as you receive the first maintenance bill for a handmade British V12 that is out of warranty, then you'll know why it was a bargain.

[@landhopper4296]

Having driven one of these, it is an epic car, and with the quieter ride, you get to hear the V12 even more. Nicely made, comfortable and somewhat practical. Would I buy one, no, because if I’m buying an Aston I’d want a 2dr sports GT, with great sense of occasion, so though this IS a good car, I think the lack of buyers killed the residual and lower down the scale, it’s the same with large saloons. They’ve lost out to SUVs.
