Aston Martin DB9 Volante (2011) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Jethro Bovingdon, 18 May 2011 10:29

I remember it well. A glorious summer’s day, I was still in my 20s and somebody casually threw me the keys to the Aston Martin DB9 Volante parked outside. ‘Try it,’ they said. Then I headed out onto a road I knew well, roof down, firing through the gears with the big paddles that operate the smooth Touchtronic ‘box. I ...

Ferrari FF (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Jethro Bovingdon, 24 March 2011 11:40

A new chapter in Ferrari’s rich history begins with this, the FF. The designation is simply shorthand for ‘Ferrari Four’, and not only is it a two-door 'shooting brake' estate, but for the first time ever a Ferrari has four-wheel drive capability. This new Ferrari FF sounds intriguing. Does it have conventional 4wd system? No. Instead the FF has a two-speed ...

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Aston Martin Rapide (2010): the CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Jethro Bovingdon, 12 February 2010 09:00

brightcove.createExperiences(); brightcove.createExperiences(); This is Aston Martin being sensible. Well, relatively sensible. The new 2010 Rapide has four doors and four seats. But don’t fear, it still has a 5.9-litre V12 with 470bhp and will carry four occupants to 188mph. It still looks like an Aston, too. We really can’t think of a better looking four-door on the planet. But that ...
