    A known problem in the phantom , and a problem i encountered in my 2010 Coupe was the cover you press to release the idrive control which would sometimes stick. A Majestic car and more special than the more common wraith. In total 781 Phantom Coupes were built of which 124 were RHD ,88 for the UK, compared to 1914 Dropheads of which 296 were RHD 205 for the uk

    As far as Aston goes the best model in my opinion is the V12 Vantage V600 Coupe (Manual). Ultra limited final edition but absolutely perfect in the same way the Zonda F was the best of that model.

    The Phantom Coupe, I car I dream of owning!
    Rather surprised at the difficulty in getting into the Phantom coupe, I drive an 05 Jaguar XJ8 and when you remove the key from the ignition the seat slides all the way back and drops as well as the steering lifting up. The easiest car I have ever got into and out from!
    I'm a little surprised that the Phantom does not do something similar, (or maybe it does).
    Great video, keep them coming, and with regular reports on the fabulous Phantom!

  • @IanRMcAllister
    @IanRMcAllister 5 лет назад +1

    Nice video Damian. Never sure about the Phantom Coupe, but then when you mention how few were made = it makes sense as a touring car keeper. You can pick an early Phantom 4door up now for less than £80k - don't think the coupe will drop as quickly thanks to low numbers.
    Agree with you on the Aston's. The DB9 and old Vantage were great. The new DB11 just isn't right (you can see why they have added adapted models so quickly - up against the new Bentley Continental, the Bentley is a far better car at a lower price point), whilst the Vantage is growing on me. OK, its only got the single scroll turbo's, and the styling is overly-complicated, but compared to the ugly Mercedes-AMG GT - it makes the Vantage competitive.

    Rolls Royce as Rolls Royce died when it started using the Chrysler Engine under the logo of Rolls Royce. I could hear the difference.

I get it, they are chasing the money and right now that is younger buyers. Loving the Phantom Coupe Damian, very cool choice.

That has the pre LCI i drive my M3 has the newer version much better, but well out of date now, not that such things bother me, I still buy CDs, none of that download, apple car play, nonsense for me I'm afraid . As for the newer Astons not really a fan, they sound great but in my opinion they are a bit of a parts bin special , the old v8 vantage had quite a few ford and volvo components and the new ones have lots of Mercedes AMG parts, they just seem to have lost their purity, like the old DB5 and DB6. That said I do have a soft spot for the "casino royale , quantum of solace " DBS though.

There is also a gray zone in between, when the cars can be pronounced both ways. Now you know.
