Which is the best? How does the Ferrari 488 GTB compare to that British thoroughbred, the Aston Martin V8 Vantage? There’s only one way to find out – take both for a spin around Silverstone’s world-famous circuit.
Pitch the delightful squeal of the light, agile, Ferrari 488 GTB against the grace and power of the 4.3 litre, V8 Aston Martin. Enjoy the subtle (and not so subtle) differences in power, handling, dynamics and luxury refinement. Once your laps are done, you’ll be one of the lucky few who can genuinely settle the argument between the Ferrari and the Aston Martin.
This experience is the perfect gift for those who want flexibility, as it allows the driver to use it on any available date on the calendar and any time slot, including premium times.
