It wouldn't be as bad if the whole car was gold.

It would. It would look tacky and crap. Aston's aren't about being flash.

The guy in the suit and trainers is pretty naff also..

"As bad" as in it would have looked better. But still not great.

EDIT, but the gold one is really horrible

Oh God that's horrible

Lummox · 18 Nov 2008 at 19:55

Nasty, nasty, nasty.

IAmATeaf · 18 Nov 2008 at 21:24

God that looks totally nasty, the pic from the front makes it look like a tarted up MG

johnny6 · 18 Nov 2008 at 21:33

Oh dear.

It wouldn't look half as bad if they just stuck to either gold or platinum

Dappy · 18 Nov 2008 at 21:50

May as well write that car off, what was he thinking?! :confused:

Poor Aston.

Only 8K over next budget

I doubt I could afford to run one (and probably couldn't get insured either).

Automatic

I'd really love one of these, they ooze class (IMO) and are understated in design. As for the mechanical side, I haven't a clue how reliable/expensive to run they are. Maybe when I'm a bit older though - seems to be a car for when you're in your mid 30's-40's

Three owners, automatic, and moon miles.

Wouldn't touch it, even if I did have that money to spare.
