Why would someone do that!

I never liked that model of Aston anyway - but some love it.

They look alright in BRG, but not the eye candy that the DB7 is :-\

I like the Virage but not in that colour. v DB7. Bit like comparing chalk & cheese.

Granted, not a fair comparison,  as its a bit like comparing Susan Boyle with Ellie Goulding in that dress ::)

Don't think it is a wide bodied Virage but desirable with the top off.

I have only ever driven the DB7 V12 Volante and was dissapointed to see ford switchgear and it had a ford chubb key!

Didn't Ford buy/own/rescue the company at the time. DB7's of various types have a dedicated following.
