Buy or hire the DB11 if...
Aston Martin's V12 grand tourer, built to cover long distances quickly rather than to lap a track. The twin-turbo V12 and sub-4-second 0-62mph time put it against Bentley and Ferrari GT rivals, so it suits hirers after an occasion car for a long drive rather than a city run-around.

Buy or hire the 488 Spider if...
An open-top V8 supercar hired for weddings, birthdays and other occasions where the noise and presence matter as much as the drive. Its folding hardtop makes it usable as a everyday-ish hire car in good weather, unlike a fixed-roof track special.
