Costs & verdict
Everyday costs, plus how reliable and safe it is
There’s little to say here that you won’t already know. The DBS isn’t cheap to buy and nor will it be cheap to run. But if the prospect of its price or day-to-day running costs has crossed your mind, perhaps it wasn’t really for you in the first place. If you can contemplate the sums involved, you can always take solace in the fact that the DBS is a relative bargain compared to the 812 Superfast.
The level of standard equipment is high, from usability features such as keyless entry and sports seats, to the dynamic appendages including carbon-ceramic brakes and 21in forged lightweight alloy wheels. Nevertheless, you can go crazy decking out your DBS with a range of bespoke features, should you wish.
