Couldn't agree more.
The problem is that in the good old days, owners would have a proper saloon (S-class / 7-series / Jaguar) or a real 4x4 (Land Cruiser / Range Rover) for daily use and an Aston or Ferrari for special occasions. Each car would be perfectly suited to its intended use. However, with SUV's, you get a car that's neither great off-road nor fabulous on-road. You're basically getting the worst of both worlds. As for the looks...🤢

It is probably one of the handful of SUVs that don’t stumble over themselves when asked to perform on a proper road…
They really did great in that respect. As for engine note - AMG V8s are known to be sonorous and the ones in Aston’s are no exception 👌🏻🦾
A blessing or a curse?
15 years ago my first luxury car was a naturally aspirated BMW 328. I’ve owned many 3 Series including the turbo 335. Three years ago I walked into BMW looking to score a new M340 sedan. They only had two, both spec’s the way I didn’t want them. I test dr...
