Aston Martin Vantage Roadster review

“One of the best-looking cars in the world with a neat electric fabric convertible roof – and this wasn’t some chop-shop drop-top either, the Roadster was designed to be stiff from the outset - says it all really. ”
Good stuff
The looks, the noise, the drive. The Vantage is truly desirable
Bad stuff
Bitty interior that really feels its age

“It's getting on a bit, but continual upgrades by Aston mean the Vantage is still lovely to drive. Not as honed as a 911, but that's part of the appeal. ”
