+Supercars Max Yea I'm sad they've gone for the 'super aggressive' theme for the DB11. And soon the Vanquish will be replaced with something similar. The DB9 and Vanquish are literally so good looking that Aston Martin themselves couldn't improve on thelooks.
+Supercars Max Yes and no, the interior tech is still old compared to the brand new DB11 with all the Mercedes infotainment systems in it. It's just the engines, an AMG V8 vs an Aston Martin V12. If I won the lotto I would buy an Aston no question. Love them.
+yber15 fuel economy sucks,though the gearbox is upgraded it still isn't a double clutch,so that's a nono,plus he's looking at over 200k for a 14 plate and above. for half the price you can get an amg gt s edition one,then get a stage one ecu tune and have the car on par with the best supercars and still be more fuel efficient.
You idiot. You dont come for his looks you come for his videos and content. Pointing out things like this just shows irrevelance and how immature you are
+Matt Price Totally agree with you mate. The steering wheel and dials are what makes the DB11 a next generation Aston. But the Vanquish just looks waaaaay better from the outside. Just can't get used to the headlights of the DB11.
I'm going to give you some constructive criticism Paul. For the love of god, and I say this in the nicest possible way. Stop filming your bloody face the entire video. Sure, it's a nice face and all, but point the camera at the road while you are driving, it doesn't have to be all the time, but looking at your face for 18 minutes just isn't that exciting. I'd take inspiration from TheSmokingTire, with a small face cam, and a road cam that covers most of the screen. You are sort of falling behind on the production value side of things. In other news. Looking forward towards the new car.
Hi Paul, 2012 - 2014 Vanquish : ZF 6-speed auto (torque converter) 2015 + Vanquish : ZF 8-speed auto (torque converter) V12 Vantage S : Graziano robotized single-clutch gearbox By the way you should test drive a 2006/2007 Vanquish S 520 bhp, last of Newport Pagnell factory, 200+ mph top speed, 1086 ever built, incredible sound especially with opened valves !!!
Yes Jack, correct. Hate it when reviewers don't know what they are driving. 2011- 2014 Rapide/S ZF 6 speed, 2015-2019 Rapide S ZF 8 speed. All DB11's, and "new" DBS ZF 8's, and finally 2008- 2012 DBS ZF6 or stick ( IF you can find them...this one is the keeper!). In general, the ZF8 is much quicker/sharper shifting tranny.
Aston Martin design is incredible, best looking car in the world. Its so much cooler than ferraris and lambos. I much prefer luxurious looking design than those super sport trying to look futuristic and shit
SPLOOSH!!! My friends can have their stinking Lambos and slow Ferraris. My dream car is literally any kind of Aston Martin. But if I could choose, I would go with the Vanquish.
These many comments with no mention of Paul's misconception of the 8-speed ZF gearbox, It is still a single clutch with a torque converter and not a double clutch, as he assumes it to be and mentions above.
Haters stay away and fuck off with your fashion trilogy. He is a car enthusiast and reviewer, not a fashion designer...! He is wearing what he is comfortable with. So stay away. +SOL you are doing great paul and improving day by day in every video👍🏻
The ZF 8 speed is a normal automatic transmission with torque converter. Same as used in RR's, BMW's etc. Definitely relaxes things compared to the Sportshift 3. Great review by the way Paul! Keep up the good work.
I see Paul more of a flashy guy, and I just don't see this as the car for him. This is a business mans car. He needs a Bright Orange Hurican, or the 650s that he drove.. Anything that looks good in a bright, flashy color..this would not look good in a crazy color, too classy.
So this is a video of the side of your head. I thought you'd bought some more cameras? You should stick one facing forward etc so you can switch views whilst you're talking.
Not a chance. Theres a fundamental issue in the way in which mclaren produces and sells its cars and that is that they are consistently producing newer and better cars one after the other, too quickly! In the past 5 or so years (since the 12c was rolled out) McLaren have introduced 7 cars all in a similar price bracket. 12c, 12c spyder, 12c MSO edition, 650s, 650s spyder, 570s, 570gt. And they have all been similarly priced. When the 12c spyder came out for almost no premium over the 12c coupe, 12c coupe owners saw their cars depreciate instantly. Then the 650s came out not long after, destroying the value of all 12c's, so on and so on. And this is not including the 675lt. The vanquish may depreciate at first but keep in mind it is the last N/A v12 tourer from Aston Martin that we know of.
I like Aston Martin, and I personally wouldn't mind buying one if opportunity is there, but they do have a problem. Which is, their cars are not that popular.
100% test drove both, Maserati too slow and wallowy, not as attractive and small boot for the size of car- also you'll always be asked why you were such a cheapskate and didn't buy the Aston! Maserati is a poor man's aston, end of.
This is by far the best replacement test yet and that's saying something considering the Vantage V12, 570S, AMG GT, all going down in history as greats
You must get this car! just wait a while, ticks every box and more! Good review though. by the way the DB11 engine, a 5.2 litre twin turbo V12, isnt anything to do with AMG- completely made by Aston Martin.
just a correction... at 7:17 I believe he called the ZF 8 speed a dual clutch transmission. This is incorrect... the ZF unit is a traditional automatic transmission, not a dual clutch. Its quick and smooth shifts are thanks to the continued development of traditional automatic transmission technology on the part of ZF, and the tuning requirements Aston defined for its use in their cars.
You need to buy the Vanquish Paul - so many of your fans want to see regular Vanquish videos :) If it is out of budget, maybe consider one with the downgraded transmission - it would be an upgrade from your Gallardo anyway, as that has very clanky shifts, and they are pretty much the same as this Vanquish in all other aspects.
You hit the nail on the head in respect of auto/DC 'boxes. I'm not in this ownership bracket but had the good fortune to drive the AM 4.7 V8 Vantage...manual! The manual was so engaging and setting up for corners so involving I was left thinking an auto removes some of the sheer driving pleasure. What do you think?
We test drove all three funnily enough. The Bentley felt completely disconnected from the road and you'd have to get up to 150mph to get any sense of speed, could be a good or bad thing, bad for us as well as it having either the footballer image or old fart with a cigar image, both bad IMO! Maserati was a touch lacking in power and is a heavy car, felt a bit cheap as well as never being up there with the coolness and prestige of Aston's . We chose the DB9 anyway! No regrets at all, sold it at 65k miles, no problems, stunning car in every way! Hope that helps, and no, I'm not an Aston salesman, just being honest.
That thing is so much better than the DB11...
+fine4606 LOL Tom talk to much
+Tom you commented on Sam's video as well! body lots looks awful on elegant cars like this and the Ford gt
+Supercars Max Yea I'm sad they've gone for the 'super aggressive' theme for the DB11. And soon the Vanquish will be replaced with something similar. The DB9 and Vanquish are literally so good looking that Aston Martin themselves couldn't improve on thelooks.
+Fishfingers232 . They could , just take hints from the Vulcan or copy the Car Magazine interpretation of the DB11 )
+Supercars Max Yes and no, the interior tech is still old compared to the brand new DB11 with all the Mercedes infotainment systems in it. It's just the engines, an AMG V8 vs an Aston Martin V12. If I won the lotto I would buy an Aston no question. Love them.
JUST. BUY. THE. VANQUISH
👍
+yber15 fuel economy sucks,though the gearbox is upgraded it still isn't a double clutch,so that's a nono,plus he's looking at over 200k for a 14 plate and above.
for half the price you can get an amg gt s edition one,then get a stage one ecu tune and have the car on par with the best supercars and still be more fuel efficient.
+phantom2k10 14:29
+yber15 I'm fairly sure it's out of his pricerange
+yber15 he said his replacement car is coming in less than 10 days
How can anyone hate this car, this is British at its best 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Don't buy the mclaren. Vanquish and amg gts are better.
agreed.
Also the vantage v12s
have you driven them?
Love the Aston. But I think the gts suits Paul better
yes, the gts and the mclaren 570. I hope i will get the vanquish for a test drive soon.
They gave me the spare key today... as if the car isn't valuable enough lol
😂
I know seriously if your going to fuck the car up the key is about the only thing that will survive!!! ffs
Still like you would be a right knob if you lost the key!!!ffs
I have such a weakness for the vanquish 😩😍
Paul you should get your teeth cleaned or brush more often. They are becoming yellow and starting to show on camera.
Could you please sub to ne
You idiot. You dont come for his looks you come for his videos and content. Pointing out things like this just shows irrevelance and how immature you are
+J Fett Does not show immaturity, rather shows I'm looking out for him.
+JoeyWheeler Yellow teeth are good
+JoeyWheeler You do know the Natural Colour of Teeth are actually Yellow.
Correction: DB11 uses a 5.2 litre v12 that is no way associated with AMG.
Hooray
+David Halliday The db11 will also be coming with the 4 litre v8 engine which is developed by AMG
Yes but the V8 Version of the DB11 that is yet to be released has been confirmed to have an engine from AMG
Think he's referencing the 4.0 amg GT V8 which will be in the db11 in the future
Could you guys please sub to me
am i the only one that hates how the 650s looks?
i like the 650s lol
Yes
+Adrian Rajic No you are not the only one ;) ! I don't like it too (especially the strange front).
me too...
No you aren't
Everything looks so cheap in the interior for what it is
+Josh B wtf? that interior is just ledder, carbon fiber, and aluminium!! pair of glasses maybe!?
It's just the color, there's different spec interiors that look much better than this.
The centre dash is completely terrible, I agree. Everything else is O.K., but not really stunning.
When u can afford and Aston talk
+Josh B i'm not sure about cheap, but i don't find the interior here particularly impressive
Considering the price the steering wheel and dials look like they're 25 years old.
Which 25yo car had that steering wheel or those dials😂
Lol
+Matt Price Totally agree with you mate. The steering wheel and dials are what makes the DB11 a next generation Aston. But the Vanquish just looks waaaaay better from the outside. Just can't get used to the headlights of the DB11.
I like the dials, the wheel is aging but doesn't look that bad, the wheel in the Jag XF, XK has aged way worse imo for example.
+James Knott. that's why they stopped making them
I'm going to give you some constructive criticism Paul. For the love of god, and I say this in the nicest possible way. Stop filming your bloody face the entire video. Sure, it's a nice face and all, but point the camera at the road while you are driving, it doesn't have to be all the time, but looking at your face for 18 minutes just isn't that exciting. I'd take inspiration from TheSmokingTire, with a small face cam, and a road cam that covers most of the screen. You are sort of falling behind on the production value side of things.

Nah, I like it this way. If you want that go watch smoking tire.
Anoush N Bravo👏🏾
Like I say to soooo many vloggers - more place, less face
Hi Paul,
2012 - 2014 Vanquish : ZF 6-speed auto (torque converter)
2015 + Vanquish : ZF 8-speed auto (torque converter)
V12 Vantage S : Graziano robotized single-clutch gearbox
By the way you should test drive a 2006/2007 Vanquish S 520 bhp, last of Newport Pagnell factory, 200+ mph top speed, 1086 ever built, incredible sound especially with opened valves !!!
Yes Jack, correct. Hate it when reviewers don't know what they are driving. 2011- 2014 Rapide/S ZF 6 speed, 2015-2019 Rapide S ZF 8 speed. All DB11's, and "new" DBS ZF 8's, and finally 2008- 2012 DBS ZF6 or stick ( IF you can find them...this one is the keeper!). In general, the ZF8 is much quicker/sharper shifting tranny.
I can't believe a dealer would handover keys to someone wearing gloves like those...
Exactly
😂😂😂
My dad drives an Aston and he's the most un Aston driver you'll ever meet. He looks nothing like the stereotype. He's your typical Lennie the geeza
Those "gloves" and any Aston - not a fit!
Again, seeing your face all the time for 20 minutes is NOT why I clicked on this video. Is this a review of the Vanquish or your face?
Willy Lamb-Orgel Okay, Willy.
+Jaxon Hobbs Really? Homophobic slurs?
Jaxon Hobbs I'm like 19.
Aston Martin design is incredible, best looking car in the world. Its so much cooler than ferraris and lambos. I much prefer luxurious looking design than those super sport trying to look futuristic and shit
SPLOOSH!!! My friends can have their stinking Lambos and slow Ferraris. My dream car is literally any kind of Aston Martin. But if I could choose, I would go with the Vanquish.
katanaburner same bro same
katanaburner i would than wrap it chrome green with a matt black racestripe
Sorry about the 'nuke' Paul... hope it can be fixed
Looks and sounds great, but I still feel it's more of a gentleman's car, and not a car for a 25 year old coming from a Lambo.
DAAAMN Paul back at it again with the hobo gloves haha
Do us all a favor and get a 570S or 570GT!
+Matthew Justin i agree
+Matthew Justin Why no 650S? I'd prefer it more power and better looks^^
+AspireRacer the 650s does not look better then the 570s
+Matthew Justin 570S is not a supercar, 650S mso on the other hand..
Before you buy a new car buy a god damn camera mount so it won't shake like it's got parkinson , and get rid of the homeless style gloves
+Catalin Hoca Couldn't agree more :D
You'd rather have him buy normal gloves and then cut the fingers off? Isn't that basically the same thing?
Is this a copy of Dewbauchee Massacro?
:v
MHCP Loquendo massacro is the copy of this
rens. other way around :v
MHCP Loquendo the vanquish was first
BUY IT!!!!!!!! WRAP IT IN AWESOME COLORS. DIFFERENT EXHAUST AND DONE. AWESOME CAR!
he ordered a new AMG GTS, thats the only car he could buy from new. Great choice
It's a bloody boring choice is what it is if that's true...
+Charlie Chetwood Yeah, would be just as exciting as Marco's GTR.
+Inner Hammer Haha
+RaZDaZ Who said he bought new? He's just said on the video he's looking on Auto Trader every day for his new car...
+RaZDaZ the amg gts is not a bad car at all, but it isnt much of an upgrade from the lambo.
These many comments with no mention of Paul's misconception of the 8-speed ZF gearbox, It is still a single clutch with a torque converter and not a double clutch, as he assumes it to be and mentions above.
I honestly think they are the most beautifully designed cars in the world.
Still think the lambo has more road presence
all this guy does is film his face ffs every video!! dunno about every one eles but i wanna see the car not your face for 18 minutes. what i joke
Why the hobo-gloves? :D
+BaguetteOfDoom agreed, he's got to lose those gloves ahaha
+Connor Cooper Agreed
The 8 speed ZF transmission is not a dual clutch, Paul. Just a "regular" single clutch auto which shifts very quickly if you want it to.
actually it has a torque converter
I know, that is why I said it is a normal auto...TumblrTrash
Yes it the best torque converter trans there is
Is there a reason why he wears gloves a lot of the time! Just wondering!
+UA7A Because its been pretty cold in England the past few months, since september 15 :)
Oh OK makes sense. Thank you!
+UA7A The UK weather is shit
Oh my god, it's just so beautiful
I think you should get this! Go on it makes sense! ;)
great review Engish Heath ledger, I love the Aston
omg vanquish is so amazing 6.0 v12
That thing is my dream car
+HeyItsLKA Same! this is how mine looks :D drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B5KOgd1wi4KrdVp4bFNoQ2NyMkU&usp=sharing
Why does AM makes the steering wheels so cheap and ugly? Such beautiful cars and they fk it all up with the steering wheel
Haters stay away and fuck off with your fashion trilogy. He is a car enthusiast and reviewer, not a fashion designer...! He is wearing what he is comfortable with. So stay away. +SOL you are doing great paul and improving day by day in every video👍🏻

Great video - thanks for a real life perspective! awesome channel!
Eh, it doesn't look like a supercar... *its design resembles a normal sports car*... it doesn't justify its price.
#Pass
Steptoe and Son gloves on driving an Aston.......pure class.....not!
SOL is the type of guy to get drunk.. start trouble... then play the victim when police turn up
+LondonInHD lol
Like that helmet Jack Jones
I've been in a Vanquish too!
Did the Nuke survive the accident?
WHAT ACCIDENT??
The Austin Allegro had that square steering wheel back in the 70s ;)
I see Paul more of a flashy guy, and I just don't see this as the car for him. This is a business mans car. He needs a Bright Orange Hurican, or the 650s that he drove.. Anything that looks good in a bright, flashy color..this would not look good in a crazy color, too classy.
a bright ass blue vanquish is one of the sexiest cars out there man
+Tristan Strohecker Oh damn... you might be right s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/c7/97/35/c797358b2f057f8d2370ebcf0e9dc9de.jpg

Mclaren WILL depreciate like a bomb
Aston Martin drops faster.

When you get your car and make the big decision can you do a reaction video of the public

+Thomas Tirthdas i know right 😂😂 he looks homeless! (no offence to the homeless)
Thank you thank you thank you!!! Love this car :-)

+12345qwert911 A Tree Fell On His Audi
fattboi100 are you kidding me?
As soon as I saw the title "Drive and Review", I automatically knew it would be a video of Pauls face, without any form of credible review
The amg gt is best for sure
correct!
100% right amg gt for the win!
+Amgfan Herres Hopefully a GT S
You are so right!!!
+Jon .Snow It is practical, it has an enormous bonnet for the size.
My favorite Aston!
Besides the Hyundai Accent the Vanquish is my favourite car. Please please please buy it
Do u guys think 2006 Aston Martin db9 is better than 2008 Maserati grantruismo
100% test drove both, Maserati too slow and wallowy, not as attractive and small boot for the size of car- also you'll always be asked why you were such a cheapskate and didn't buy the Aston! Maserati is a poor man's aston, end of.
review the Lamborghini Huracan
when i sign my deal i'm buying this
This is by far the best replacement test yet and that's saying something considering the Vantage V12, 570S, AMG GT, all going down in history as greats
The vanquish makes me wanna die of how much jealous i am right now.
If this is your job, you have a very cool job! And I love the Vanquish!
You must get this car! just wait a while, ticks every box and more! Good review though. by the way the DB11 engine, a 5.2 litre twin turbo V12, isnt anything to do with AMG- completely made by Aston Martin.
The V8 Version is coming from AMG
+Qblivion EU Yet to be announced so I can only assume he got that slightly wrong, nothing wrong with that everyone makes mistakes
Easily the best car you've reviewed so far!
the vanquish is just 🔥🔥🔥
I should go for the Aston Martin !
My Dad owns a Vanquish and they are just so quick, smooth, and have an epic exhaust note!
just a correction... at 7:17 I believe he called the ZF 8 speed a dual clutch transmission. This is incorrect... the ZF unit is a traditional automatic transmission, not a dual clutch. Its quick and smooth shifts are thanks to the continued development of traditional automatic transmission technology on the part of ZF, and the tuning requirements Aston defined for its use in their cars.
Loved this! Many thanks! Can you give us a cheeky teaser on your new car? x
What's with the homeless gloves?
+supercarsoflondon hey Paul, how about trying a maserati gran turismo, even an MC stradale. rare and appreciateing in value too!
You need to buy the Vanquish Paul - so many of your fans want to see regular Vanquish videos :) If it is out of budget, maybe consider one with the downgraded transmission - it would be an upgrade from your Gallardo anyway, as that has very clanky shifts, and they are pretty much the same as this Vanquish in all other aspects.
Gloves in a car? No, just no.
Make your new car this astin martin vanquish yeah yeah I dont know the spelling of the V12 Cause im busy writing this kk 😁
I love aston Martins. the vanquish is 2nd in my top 5 favourite cars/the 5 cars for my dream garage
Thank you Paul thats my dream car. But my favourite is the DB11.
Get one!!!! That's an amazing Aston
You hit the nail on the head in respect of auto/DC 'boxes. I'm not in this ownership bracket but had the good fortune to drive the AM 4.7 V8 Vantage...manual! The manual was so engaging and setting up for corners so involving I was left thinking an auto removes some of the sheer driving pleasure. What do you think?
Aston test drive , I know I'll put my dalston market cut off gloves on....
Bump up the quality Paul!
I love the Vanquish and I love your videos so it would be the perfect replacement
Please dont get an amg gts. I see that you want to stand out with a unique car, but the amg gts isn't unique. So many People have it already.
Don't do the same mistake as the lambo and spend a lot of money on a car with those rubbish automatic gearboxes 😩🔫
I really like the look of the vanquish and it sounds amazing!! My favourite aston! Sorry about the Nuke too Paul😢
Buy it! This car is perfect for you. Please, buy it to make me happy :)
2:46 Puf uf uf uf *Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...* :D
Thumbs up for using the roads of Chorleywood on your test drive
I'd chose this over everything. It's so beautiful in that spec
He obviously bought a new Camry with Prius engine swapped into it... and ya know this is Paul so it's also Armytrix... but with ten mufflers.
+Brandon Crayola you tried too hard
loose the hat if you wanna be an Aston Martin driver.....
Don't buy this if you are going to ruin it with some stupid exhaust system
This needs to be your next car I've been in one and it amazing
The ZF 8-speed is also a single clutch gearbox lol
@charlie chetweod which one do u think I should get? 2006 Bentley, 2006 Aston Martin or 2008 Maserati
We test drove all three funnily enough. The Bentley felt completely disconnected from the road and you'd have to get up to 150mph to get any sense of speed, could be a good or bad thing, bad for us as well as it having either the footballer image or old fart with a cigar image, both bad IMO! Maserati was a touch lacking in power and is a heavy car, felt a bit cheap as well as never being up there with the coolness and prestige of Aston's . We chose the DB9 anyway! No regrets at all, sold it at 65k miles, no problems, stunning car in every way! Hope that helps, and no, I'm not an Aston salesman, just being honest.
This is your perfect car man omg its so amazing so i'd say wait a little while and buy this thing because this aston is the definition of perfection
