Watch: Porsche 911 Turbo S v Aston Martin DB11

Feel free to clap: the Aston and the Porsche are both accomplished, and noisy, performers

Let’s be honest, most of us are wondering whether to get a hatch or a small SUV. But there are others who have progressed beyond such mundane considerations. Don’t believe they have it easy though. They still have choices to make, just like we do, and the sums involved make it all the more important that they make the right choice.

Yup, okay, there’s no way you’re going to feel sorry for someone about to buy a 911 Turbo S, fair enough, but it was worth a try. On the other hand, we might feel slightly sorry for someone who had to choose between these cars based on their colours. We don’t think either is that great for the vehicle.

But under that paint we have a delicious pair of supercars, the Porsche 911 Turbo S and the Aston Martin DB11. They look fabulous (under the paint), they go like the clappers clapping as hard as clappers can clap, and they sound divine.

So if you want to find out if the new British car is more than a handsome GT car and whether it can take on the mighty Turbo S, you’ll simply have to watch the video and remember to turn the sound up. Feel free to clap.
