    PS- there’s so much TH-cam content waxing lyrical about either Ferrari or Porsche. It’s so amazingly refreshing to see someone who’s so enthusiastic about Aston ownership without that being a reference to DB5/6 or some sort of Bond homage. The VH era cars are fabulous things in their own right. Flawed, yes- indeed hilariously so sometimes, but at the same time utterly, utterly magnificent.

      I think the VH era Astons are the most beautiful ones they ever made... Timeless, with the same level of sofisticated class as Bentley and RR.

    As you said, the Casino Royale "DBS" cars were actually DB9s underneath, because real DBSs didn't exist yet. The interior of the CR cars were bespoke, and not really either DB9 or DBS. Custom seats, custom waterfall controls, backlit gearshift lever, race helmet storage behind the front seats, and a custom bright red Aston Martin fire extinguisher centered in the back behind the seats. The cars used in Quantum of Solace were actually real production model year 2009 DBSs, German market spec, with lightweight racing seats, and front parking sensors deleted (chassis E00038 through E00047). A number of them were destroyed during filming, but Eon Productions and AML each retained at one "hero" car in pristine condition, and at least one sold at auction for charity. One with the driver's door ripped off (chassis E00038) has been on tour with the "Bond in Motion" exhibit.

    Hi Ben, told you a while ago I was getting a DB9. Well now I have it and love it!
    It’s booked in at Bamford Rose for the primary de cat & re map treatment in a couple of weeks so can’t wait to drive it home to Scotland from there!
    Personally I don’t see the appeal of the DBS, it’s not a lot prettier than DB9 but it’s a LOT more expensive! I’m happy with what I’ve got, puts a big cheeser on my face every time I take it out!
    Love the channel, onwards and upwards!👍👏👏👏😊❤️

  • @marcdeschryver7687
    @marcdeschryver7687 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

    Like you, I fell in love with the DBS, watching Casino Royal…Years later, I was looking at DBS pricing on a car website but they was still VERY expensive and then had a look at the DB9. After a few years I decided to get one for my 50th birthday: a DB9 from 2009 with about 27000km. I had to replace the coils quite soon after buying it. That was the only big cost I had to make except a respray job. Then the dealer told me they had a DBS Carbon Black Edition from another customer for sale and I decided to buy it. So I sold my DB9. I’ve now had the DBS for 10 years and it has never failed. Except the more agressive drive, the seats are much nicer to sit in. I do prefer the DB9’s premium sound system to the B&O system. It just has more balls in the lower end than the B&O. Otherwise the DBS wins in all areas.

    I’m of the same era Ban and was just smitten by the DBS in Casino Royale. For me though, the improvements just kept coming, in looks, power and ergonomics. So I pulled the trigger on a 2015 Vanquish Carbon Edition and have been bowled over with it since - (although I’m sure there’ll be some who prefer the DBS looks).
    My 7 year old has since turned into a 9 year old knowing trips with us, including the NC500 and island hops to Mull and the like. Who says fun cars can’t be family cars! Keep it going Ben!! Brilliant content and enthusiasm. And get a Vanquish on the channel!!

    @NomadJRG 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Never really appreciated the improvement in looks over the DB9 but having seen them back to back at the start of this video the DBS is quite a step up visually from the DB9. The trouble for me is they are such a similar price to the >2012 Vanquish, which is arguably better in all regards and would be taking my money. It will be hard downsizing in engine capacity from my C63, but I might be able to swallow it for an Aston!

    I love your enthusiasm Ben for both the brand and this model, you can tell by your whole demeanour that the DBS means so much to you. I’m a tad younger but still these VH platform Astons were the real dream cars when I was growing up too, I loved the DB9 when it was released and in fact loved each model as the similar looks all meant they looked so beautiful. My dream model ended up being the Rapide given its practicality over the other models. I remember looking at the ads for these cars when they were still at nearly new prices saying to myself ‘one day’, and I would be happy with any model but preferably a Rapide. Well 3 years ago we picked up a Quantum Silver Rapide and adore it, we have a light interior which makes it so special and a real sense of occasion. I can relate so much to this video. ❤
    You need to get a DBS one day mate, you won’t regret it, and you won’t sell it either 😃

    Another great video Ben. Good to see how well your channel's doing. The DBS certainly has that extra little wow factor over a DB9 but for many just owning an Aston is a dream and so if you can finally afford one and the only one you can stretch to is a DB9 you won't be left disappointed.

    Nice review. I’ve got a V8 Vantage and, frankly, we should just be glad that we’re able to drive these things whilst it’s still not completely socially unacceptable to do so. DB9, DBS, V8 or V12- it’s all great.
    And I totally agree on the sense of occasion- it’s fab.

  • @stevewushu
    @stevewushu 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Nice comparative review against the DB9 👍🏻
    My former DB9 was my 3rd Aston and I test drove a DBS whilst it was being serviced.
    The difference between the 2 cars was just mind boggling.
    In my opinion worth the extra money over a DB9
    HOWEVER the 2012+ DB9 is essentially a DBS main tub with a new front end.
    Similar power, CC brakes, wider rear arches, 512bhp, bootlid spoiler, B&O sound system etc etc.
    I’ve yet to drive the 2012+ DB9 but I’d dare say it’s as close to the DBS as you can get without dropping £60k+
    The 2012 DB9 starts at £45k for an average example now. For DBS money you could get a 2015/16 example carbon edition with low owners/miles from a reputable dealer….

    I’m exactly the same as you, the DBS has always been ingrained in my mind ever since I first saw casino royale, definitely one of my top 3 dream cars so lovely to see it on this channel. Right up there with the 599 and the 8C. Totally different to the db9, that ducktail and diffuser with the clear lights just makes the rear end look so much more muscular

    Great video Ben. Whilst the DBS is gorgeous, it's not that much more gorgeous than the DB9 and in some ways could be thought of as trying too hard. I'll stick with my DB9 (which as you know, I bought because of your channel 😊) and maybe make a few tasteful mods to it. Keep up the great work encouraging people to 'live the dream' -we are here for a good time, not a long time. And you are right that somehow we need to get the youngsters interested in cars. I know so many who aren't interested in even learning to drive !

  • @geoffk777
    @geoffk777 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    There was a time in the early 2000's when every Aston looked almost identical. You could buy a DB9, a DBS, a Virage or even a Vanquish, and only an Aston fan would be able to tell them apart. Of course each car had individual virtues and vices, but the overall shape, interior and drive was far closer than the prices would suggest.
    If the differences matter to you, than buy what you like. But very few people will be able to tell your DBS from a DB9 and even fewer will be impressed or care.

    I'm perfectly happy with my early DB9, it's in a nicer color combo than most of the DBS come in (I detest black, silver, gray or white cars) though that midnight Blue example Nicolas Mee I think had for sale recently very much appealed. People still comment on my "James Bond car", because 99% of people will never know the difference anyway. If I save money I can put that into upgrading the DB9 to DBS spec under the skin, still have a lot of money left over, and get more or less the same result.

    Great content Ben 🙂 Keep sharing that AM passion. 🙂 On the point about the passenger airbag you raised, mine doesn't have a switch and my manual bluntly states "Aston Martin strongly recommends not to install any child seat on the front passenger seat of this vehicle". Ooff ! As mine is also a 2+0 that effectively means no child seats! The switch does appear to be available as a genuine AM part - so I think the switch on the dbs you tested here must have been an AM factory "extra". Crucial point to look out for dads of course - not least of all because it may (justifiably) lead to the new dream car needing to be returned if overlooked during the buying 'process'.

    I owned both a 6speed DBS and db9 at the same time and drove them back to back many times for the soul purpose of trying to identify any noticeable differences worth talking about. The answer I came up with is they're as close to exactly the same you could possibly imagine. If you were able to drive both while blind folded, I can promise you that you'd be guessing which you ass was parked in. The difference is in the those beautiful hips at the back side of the DBS.. The price difference is worth the better looking dbs. Just my opinion.

    I apply this thinking to ANY car. If you want and can afford a base-spec MX-5 over some Euro-Box, a Golf GTI over a bogo model, or a big engine GT over an SUV, then do it. Live out the dream. It's exactly the same with the robotised manual; even if it's not the 'right' gearbox, better to have one of those over never doing it.

    Love it! But still doesn't beat the Granturismo Ben. Nor the sound (I'm biased but as you know did make that choice). Loving the content.

      The Gran Turismo is undeniably superior as a Dadcar due to the rear seats

    I'd save up for the manual DBS, it would be nice to see a porsche panamera on the channel, a GTS preferably.

      These VH platform Astons are actually a really nice size. Notably easier on a tight country lane compared to say a F12. And easier around town than a SUV
