the misses has got a very nice astra turbo convertible that shes had since new , BUT she now wants to get something else and im trying to talk her into the above car as they are cheap at the mo compared to other cars of this type it will not be a new buy but perhaps a MY 2004 , so my question is should i try to talk her into it as ive never owned one or driven one i know my aston is kindof based on them but these not really a comparison she only does about 4-6 k a year if that if these no sun  onto no6 Range Rover

I had a black xk convertible for a few years and absolutely loved it!!! Only sold it because the kids wouldnt go in the back comfortably according to their mother!!! They do have a few issues like the RR but the pleasures & their beauty outweigh it all - i also think they look great value at the moment Go get one

Yeah, go for it!

I've also heard that they're practically an Aston without the badge - or price tag...

thank you the replies are more positive than i thaught they would be so whatch this space and i wont forget the pics  onto no6 Range Rover

fantastic choice,

a shooting acquaintance has one - I won't call him a friend cos he is a DICK that everyone tries to avoid - keeps turning up to shoots in it and getting punctures on his 20" alloys. The tyres are ultra ultra low profile and they keep getting knocked off their rims by pebbles on the farm drive...
