Old Top Gear in a nutshell: We all agree the British car is sort of rubbish. Clearly, the foreign car is better in every possible way. But. The British car won my heart and therefore wins the recommendation. 😅

[@scottwhitley3392]

Tbf I’d rather own an Aston Martin than a Ferrari. Obviously I’ll never own either 🤣

[@soundmattersuk]

Not quite every way. The Aston is much prettier, and sounds way better.

[@nodo7575]

Aston looks so much better that i prefer it still. That Ferrari is fugly.

[@unr3alGaming]

To be fair, they reviewed the last version of the Vanquish against the last version of the Ferrari 575M a year or two before, and both him and an F1 World Champion picked the Ferrari.

[@AndorRadnai]

Well, it’s how it goes in real life too. I know the Ferrari is better in every way, but that Aston Martin is a prettier thing to live with.

[@_financial_regret_]

The Vanquish is 23 now, still looks beautiful

[@Firemarioflower]

This generation of cars will never be surpassed.... Modern day supercars look overstyled, overdramatic and shouty, massive grills, weird, square angles everywhere, dents, and odd lights that don't get along with the rest of the styling. 1990s - 2008 cars were the best in terms of beauty

[@FAT8893]

@@Firemarioflower It's the same reason why I much prefer the Murcielago over the Aventador. I'm really not a fan of the latter's jet fighter styling. Give me the smooth curvaceous lines of the former all day long, even if it's the stripped-out SV version.

[@twotailedavenger]

It's tantamount to heresy to say this in the face of the DB5, but the original Vanquish is possibly the best looking Aston ever made. The Jaguar XK of this era was also a looker. Was essentially a super-sized E-type.

[@Epik-hm8ws]

Well, I think the 550 and 575 aged beautifully

[@Markknightexeter]

[@armands3153]

For me only the 550 Barchetta is the pretty one of the 550s/575s. Also for me there is no prettier Ferrari than the 458 Italia. It's again question of taste and i respect your opinion.

[@the80386]

I agree. 550 looks better. I wish there was a 550 with features of 575. Anyway, I don't like the look of 458 and the newer ferraris because they have one rear light on each side. The classic dual twin lights look much better.

[@7thletterstudios648]

I agree. If I ever move to the US or Canada, I will buy one. I love the 575s.

[@killacamfoo]

Funny how they thought the Ferrari wouldn't age well in their review, where they have changed their designs so much in the last few years vs. aston which have remained mostly the same. I think the Ferrari has aged very well.

[@armands3153]

Killacamfoo O.G. You just attested their statement. You see, only because the 575 (what was the specific model they were talking about) didn't age well, it wasn't timeless as the Daytona, so Ferrari redesigned the whole thing and Aston didn't because it was aging well, AM has this like a retro/classic style what makes it to look good even now, they are timeless, especially the new Vanquish and Vantages...

[@souloftheage]

Even the Aston knows not to downshift to 2nd when you're doing 80mph.

[@visionist7]

Clarkson is nearly as full of shit as that clown demuro sometimes. Knowing how delicate that gearbox is I winced watching him trying to force it to downshift like that

[@ubg43]

When you change up a gear, feather the throttle for a moment - you will find the change a lot smoother. With practice, you can get pretty good at it.

[@TheBS80]

That´s what the owners manual of my 06 S says. ;) Jeremy Clarkson is a good entertainer, but he doesn´t know much about cars. He never understood the Vanquish and its gearbox and that´s a shame. He didn´t have to loose the drag race, that was his own fault. The Vanquish isn´t that much slower than a 575. Compare a Ferrari 599 gearbox to a well setup Vanquish S - you won´t feel any difference, that´s a fact. And yes, I mean the 599. Today, the Vanquish S is a well often-sought after car with a very high reliability. Let´s see what will be in a few years. I think, the Vanquish S is the last true Aston. And even a Non-S car is brilliant if its setup is well done.

[@unr3alGaming]

Alan Steadman The thing is that most people who buy these cars are not ace mechanics or seasoned racing drivers. They're average Joes who made a small fortune doing whatever they do for a living and can afford a sports car to have some fun with. They're not going to read the manual, nevermind trying to feather the throttle or take a corner with a certain amount of braking or whatever. The Aston should "just work" for anybody, but it doesn't. The Ferrari does. That's all Jeremy was saying. That being said, this was years ago. The shift paddle transmissions have gotten tons better and Jeremy now embraces them. They allow for instant changes, even in Astons, now that they learned from their past mistakes.

[@TheLittleDinka]

+David Van I like your logic.

[@Tron_Funkin_Blow]

It's a $160,000 car capable of changing gears with one finger. If you have to feather the throttle on an up-shift with a paddle gearbox then the manufacturer shouldn't offer paddle shift.

[@caalcb7]

@@TheBS80 why it won't change down tho? Please explain it to me. I'm curious about it.

[@dvamateur]

I prefer the styling of the Vanquish S here (or the original Vanquish) to 575MM. But!!! I prefer the styling of the 550 Maranello to the styling of the Vanquish. I find it amazing how minor cosmetic changes like the ones applied with the 575MM can ruin things. I mean, it's still nice, but the grill and the lights of the original 550 sit so much better with the overall styling of the car.

[@cerealkilla8930]

I love the 550.

[@roarofleone4985]

with a few mods it would be a demon

[@jetara4493]

I still think 575 is one of the best looking Front Engine Supercars. Its amazing.

[@cb3948]

Best quotes about flappy paddles ever:"I paid for the car! I want to choose when to change gears, not you!" and " This is really designed for, you know, posers, people who have carpet warehouses...who just want to show off for the people at the golf club...look at me I have a gear box like Michael Schumacher." So true. Those who can shift properly want to shift. Those who can't need flappy paddles.

Yeah, as per the norm BBC, "Sheikh, oooh is that racist ?"... Pretty pathetic.

[@88omair]

***** Doesn't do much for me. Beauty is subjective btw.

[@flyingphoenix113]

Ferrari 575 equals a modern interpretation of the 275 GTB/4. DB9 equals a modern DB5. Though the Aston may be more beautiful in the short term, the Ferrari will soar up and above the AM in the long term. Both in value, and in beauty. Pininfarina has had some shortcommings, but the 275 and 575 will be in the list of their masterpieces.

[@bobcalscetti3596]

The Vanquish just looks so good

[@ScottMurrayBestFamilyCars]

Remembering the original film had a longer conversation with Coogan, mentioning "if money wasn't a problem and my first name was Shake..." he'd take the Aston. Also, most of the music is changed from original, probably for copyright. One of my favourite reviews in the history of TG.

Sooooooo we’re not gonna talk about how the 575 & the corvette have the same lap time huh 🤔 9:48 Also both of these cars (the 575 & Vaquish) represent the beginning of the end of manual gearboxes in high-end cars. So sad 😞 BUT I’d have the 575 out of the two just in a 6speed.

[@SarahAndreaRoycesChannel]

I think designwise the 550 will do age a lot better than the 512 testarossa or even the 512BB. There is no denial in that the Aston Martin has something to it visually that is just stunning, though.

[@flyingphoenix113]

It has. The 512's are worth nothing and the 550's and 575's are holding their value quite well for a ferrari of their age.

[@bmstylee]

Maybe it's because I'm an 80s kid but I love the 512. The 512BB is nice but the Testa Rosa just does something for me.

[@everythingman987]

Cougan was absolutely right about the 575M not aging well. The Vanquish still looks quite nice in 2016 but the 575M looks so dated.

[@zyoungson]

Astons are timeless still think the db9 has aged less .

[@panashonik]

Just yesterday i saw a 575 and couple of weeks ago a vanquish . The Ferrari had a real presence in the area and there wasn't a single person that didn't shouted "look a Ferrari" , not to mention it look incredible despite the 10+ years of age. The Aston unfortunately, seemed like all the other cars and I'm not saying isn't and incredibly fantastic looking car but it doesn't have the presence of the Ferrari and nobody really gave it a blink.

[@the80386]

575M looks dated? lol I can assure you, to this day it forms crowds around it. and its side profile is almost perfect!

[@EliteSlayer542]

7:25 when he said "they wont age well" He was completely right. The Aston looks brand new, modern and something we'd still buy today. On the other hand, the Ferrari looks dated. It doesn't blend into the current line of Ferraris at all.

[@erepsekahs]

[@twotailedavenger]

The 550 and the 575 were kind of poisoned to me by Need for Speed - my first exposure to the car was the 550 in NFS 4, and it was *dogshit* . They'd put the handling flags in wrong, making it greasier in the back than a chili dog. No Ferrari should be getting out-cornered by a C5 Corvette.

[@BoUrnNe26]

I have to disagree with Coogan. The 550 and 575 imo have truly aged well. Seeing those cars is like having a fine, 20 yr old wine. I love the understated design compared to the flashy cars they make nowadays.

[@mainangatia2039]

[@NJTCOMET]

Love the way the Aston looks but honestly I still just love the way that Ferrari looks more. I love silly all over the place mad super cars but the Ferrari is just pretty. It's so beautiful looking but at the same time it's not excess, and it's not too busy. The way it sits, it's posture, it's beautiful Italian tan leather interior, just classy. It reminds me alot of the F430 in this way. Now Ferraris are still beautiful but there much more aggressive. The F12 and 599 are serial killers in disguise as cars. This was the last Ferrari to be elegant and pretty while being the V12 flagship of the range at that time. I'll miss them.

Aston Martin looked always great - I remember the 70's Lagonda for example, this car looked like not from this planet. But what does it help: The company got bust several times, changed hands as often as a rental car - and all because their staff had no idea about quality standards. Today the important components come from Mercedes - and I take it the electric future will even increase Aston Martins dependence. It does Bentley and Rolls Royce no harm to be owned by German car makers, does it? Should Mercedes buy Aston Martin one day, it may well mean the end of their financial and qualitative imponderables.

These cars basically had manual gearboxes but with hydraulic actuation for the clutch and gear shift actions. They tend to shift gears a bit like granny shifting. When driving them, you have to drive them like you would with a normal manual gearbox (let off the gas before flicking the paddles for smooth gear shifts).

[@李紫阳-x7f]

makhiaveli song name?

[@AstralDragoon]

I want a 550.

[@Rytis36]

Seen a few in real life, Got to say it's the most beautiful car i have ever seen

[@AstralDragoon]

Rytis36 I've seen the Barchetta model in a museum. Got to say, I prefer it with the hard top. But yes, it is the finest-looking car I know of. I don't know exactly what tweaks they made for the 575, but it just doesn't look as pretty for some reason.

Got to drive a few kilometres in a Vanquish S back in 2011. Good bucket list item that. 😁

3:42 dramatic drive by

[@wildwilly87]

you're missing my point. there's a huge difference between driving the car fast on its limit, and drifting it. Watching a supercar drift is no more exciting than watching your 180sx drift and is not a realy indication on how the car handles. Watching a supercar driven fast is entirely different.

[@Rytis36]

I don't get it, every time he says watch this, he just drifts and that's it. I can do it in my rust bucket estate, but I am not saying it's good as a supercar

I’m in 2020 the Martin looks still looks new Ferrari looks like from the 90s. Get me ?

[@faisonsampson9809]

Aston Martin LOOKS AWESOME

[@355Owe]

You need to go to the opticians

[@robben896]

I think the Maranello aged beautifully. It is magnificent! It looks very good. It's like a Grand touring version of the Ferrari F50 which i also like very much. Ferrari F50 is my favourite Ferrari in fact.

[@nasir2441]

Who watching this in 2017 😅

[@rhymeztubeofficial5538]

Almost 2019

[@HRHooChicken]

Did they cut out Steve's comment where he says something like 'If i didnt care about the depreciation and my name started with Sheik, i'd have the Aston' or was that another clip?

[@sukhdevr3489]

Yh they cut it out

[@iTalkAppleOnly]

0:53 you can see a car in the back ground

[@ivanbima5877]

It's probably 575

[@rishenreni7618]

Whoa old comment

[@theodor12]

A car? On Top Gear? No... can't be...

[@jasepaul91]

the reason the paddle shift gearbox doesn't work in the Aston is simply because Aston Martin connect it to a manual gearbox whereas Ferrari attach there's to an automatic gearbox like F1 cars hence the term 'semi-automatic'.
