Aston Martin DBX SUV Wankfest

Post by Ascender »

So, I don't absolutely hate the looks, although large parts of it do look like every single other "sporty" SUV. You can see where they've designed a bog standard SUV and then pasted on a couple of Aston features from other models to make it look like an Aston.

But who came up with the ear piss that is the pre-configured spec names?

Capri Machine (needs more actual Capri).... Mojave Minimalist....Metropolitan Spritz

Car manufacturers, just stop please.
Cheers,

Mike.

I'm waiting for its first appearance in a rap video.

That. The front and sides don’t look terrible but the stupid ducktail is hideous.

That's the perfect example of "how do we make this look different from every other similar SUV?" "Just bolt-on the ducktail."

I love the picture of the 2 dogs jumping out of the tiny badly shaped boot, no wonder they are leaping out!!

It would have actually been a pretty nice 4x4 if they made the spoiler a bit less erect. I like that it has its own chassis rather than being a tarted up VW which is what the entire competition consists of.
How about not having a sig at all?

The entire competition... other than the Range Rover, which it the definitive 4x4, you mean.

Can't fathom why they've grafted a Vantage arse onto it. Its the Mk 1 Cayenne issue all over again (clearly I mean only in relation to the ducktail - it isn't that ugly :lol: ).

Yes, because if you’re looking to buy a 4x4 which has sporty handling you really want a Range Rover :roll:

It’s called the Range Rover SV Dynamic, or the Range Rover Sport, or the Ranger Rover Sport SVR, or the Range Rover Velar, or the Range Rover Velar SV Dynamic. Take your pick.

Aside from the Range Rover SV Dynamic none of the others you’ve listed are competitors in terms of pricing. I’m sure the full fat Dynamic handles well for a Range Rover though but still not sure what you or GG are trying to argue here.

Or the Range Rover SVR which held (still holds?) the NBR SUV lap record.

Regards to pricing we didn’t mention it, you did. Apply that to your original post “I like that it has its own chassis rather than being a tarted up VW which is what the entire competition consists of.” and maybe it’s you who doesn’t get your own point, none of the VW offerings are close in terms of price :lol:

If we’re going for SUV’s over £100k then the Range Rovers are well in there including the SVR’s and Dynamics which are even more again. Even VW palm those off to Audi, Lambo, Bentley etc ;)

I’m not wasting more time on this if this is the level of your mental output right now.

:lol:

I quite like it, it’s reminiscent of the Levante I think, albeit a bit more “taut”.
