BTW I find it VERY wierd that JC always praises British cars but he never actually buys one for himself!! His last car was a Ferrari 355 (Italian), his actual car is a Mercedes SL55 AMG (German) and his future car will be a Ford GT (American)... I mean if he loves Astons that much wouldn't it be logical to buy one for himself???
oh and speaking of "cool" British cars... I've actually had the priviledge of driving in a Jaguar XK8 convertible... it has horrible!!! I don't know why they call it "sporty" cause I could overtake more easily in my 1993 1.4 Nissan Sunny... It does acelerate hard when you're like over 100 kph (60 mph) but usually you use your car to accelerate from 0 or from low speeds, once on the highway you don't really care for acceleration. I also found the roof pretty noisy (yes it's a convertible but it costs more than 75.000 euros for Pete's sake!), and I actually had MORE leg room in my Nissan Sunny than in that thing!! Before the test drive, the Jag XK8 convertible was THE perfect car for me, I couldn't wait to get a good paying job to buy one... after the test I came out wondering who the hell would spend such money on such a car!!! It may look cool on TG when they glide on the beach with it, but for driving one in the city it sucks!!
