What does he think compared to the porker?

I assume he looked in the boot

Mega bucks the V8

They do sound awesome, I goaded one in to flooring it away from a few weeks back. Did sound nice.

he likes it, a lot though side by side its really only the same as the porker yet its a lot more,  what boot? or whats in the space, I only looked in it to see the £93000 price that was fixed in the window.... the fun will stop soon though as nearly emptied the tank today!

We were going to get one but got fed up of waiting.

In the end sort of glad we didn't because of lack of boot and price

To spec to same level as our £63k boxster we were looking at £75-78k and that was just for the middle V6

F Type S  (380) in V6 guise arguably a sensible choice.

Not that I will be deliberating placing an order for one just yet..........or indeed probably ever.

I certainly wouldn't snub it purely because of the brand name/badge or the rag top assuming of course that funds allowed.

I was reading that the inside was poorly finished, is that true?

+1 on the Jag far better made than  the Aston.

I wanted an aston martin, went looked and walked away....shocking quality.
As proof part of the door card on a £180,000 DBS is held on with velcro.........

Not for me thanks.

I will look at the Jag as I like the current XKR anyway.
