Aston Martin DB4 Convertible.

I never saw a convertible DB 4, and I must say that I prefer the Coupé, which I find purer, as very often when we compare convertibles and coupés. Credit picture: Car and Classic. What do you think? Best, Nicolas ...  

That was a DB6 Volante which is a bit different

I saw that, indeed.

Hehehe, true, indeed.

I can see myself driving it on a nice summer day !!!

A whole summer, for me. ;)

 
 By: amanico : December 1st, 2020-23:20

That would be even better for sure!

I also prefer the coupe but would not mind taking the convertible...

...if the coupe was not available anymore

+1. An acceptable compromise ;-)

 
 By: ChristianDK : December 1st, 2020-22:22

Absolutely. We are humle men Mike. :-)

Have great day, dear friend.

LOL!

Roof down I prefer the convertible, roof up the coupe

However, both gorgeous cars Cheers JML

In total agreement!

Can’t afford it

Open top racing...

...was pretty pure in the past. The 1955 550 Porsche Spyder was as pure as they come. Some cars do look better in coupe guise but open top versions, at least to me, are just as pure.

Coupe

Some convertible look better with top down but this one is better with top up

Thank you my dear friend.

In total agreement.

What do I think?

I could kill for that car 😉 I’m a sucker for classic Aston Martins. Ever since I saw one in The Persuaders I’m hooked; probably for live... Thanks for the pics, mon ami. Regards, George

One of the nicest Ferrari’s imo. In yellow an unbeatable offering.

There are some similarities indeed. Did you order an Alpine, Nico? I know you’ve test driven one.

Yes, I did! ;)

 
 By: amanico : December 2nd, 2020-11:59

Well done 🥂🍾

 
 By: George Gently : December 3rd, 2020-07:12
A real driver’s car! I don’t know you, Nicolas, but I’m sure the new Alpine suits you like anything else. Wish you always a safe trip.

Splendid!

 
 By: George Gently : December 3rd, 2020-13:11
Can’t wait to see some pics of it. Blue Alpine Héritage?

No. Grey. ;)

 
 By: amanico : December 3rd, 2020-14:27

Looking good as well

 
 By: George Gently : December 4th, 2020-00:08

Oh yes, terrific.

But that convertible is a beauty.

I would be ok with either

What strikes me is how much ridiculous gizmos modern cockpits have: touchpads, radars, fake engine sound, you name it. Those were simpler times, when the entire option list was revolving on leather colour and paint samples

I spent 3 years having this one renovated. Lovely car to look at. Achingly beautiful. I just didnt like the drive after all that was said and done. ...  

I became curious

to know why you didn't like to drive it. The car is really beautiful.

+1!
