Discussion
Evening all. I can't help but notice that there is not a great deal of Rapide discussion here on the Forum. Reason I bring this up is that now we have our wee daughter it's a bit of a squeeze to get us all into the Vantage. Not much space for 'er indoors in the boot..! So, I feel the time is rapidely (sic) approaching where I may just have to chop the V8V for it's 4-seat cousin [or maybe a Bentley Continental GT]. Are the Rapide owners a happy bunch? Anyone had both a Rapide and a Bentley? What did they prefer?
Much ta!

Bit of thread drift, methinks...! So, has anybody owned both a Continental GT and a Rapide...??? If so, which did they prefer and which was best suited for family use?
I think the answer is going to be fairly obvious if you ask on the AM forum if people prefer an Aston or a big VW.Also, is the Flying Spur not more comparable to the Rapide instead of the CGT?

I know of one Rapide owner: Dr Ulrich Bez. Has a mews house very close to Stratstone in Mayfair. I make a point of blipping the throttle past his house if his car is there.
Did he not auction it off for the Japanese charity appeal?Gassing Station | Aston Martin | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
