This car is so gorgeous it reminds you why you fell in love with cars in the first place

The moment comes as we turn on to a road called The Slades. In common with many such roads in the Cotswolds, the charming corner of England just near Oxford, this road runs through beautiful, rolling hills, populated with small villages filled with cottages and houses made of honey-coloured stone.

Is it better to buy an electric car now or to wait? Conor Pope and Michael McAleer debate the optionsMotorists set to face congestion or clean-air zone charges under new traffic plan The DB12 doesn’t suffer from any issues in the cabin. There’s a big, sweeping centre console festooned with real, proper buttons and switches, a shallow but wide touchscreen, and palpably better quality than in the DB11.

Aston reckons that this DB12 Volante is a Super Tourer — a car with supercar performance but Grand Tourer comfort The nose – through fast, talkative steering – darts so quickly into corners that you’d swear Aston had filled the front tyres with helium. No big, beefy front-engined coupe has any right to be this agile in tight turns. Yes, the DB12 is wide – intimidatingly so at times – but it’s far more chuckable than you might expect.
