Asphalt Driveway - Durability?

But we are concerned how this would look in 1, 5, 10 years time....
We love the look (and the price) but if there is issues using asphalt, we will just fork out more money for exposed aggregate.
Thoughts?
We are keen for an asphalt driveway on a new build we are hoping to commence soon (with concrete edging).

We're doing an asphalt driveway (starting tomorrow) and a lot of it
We've always gone with concrete in the past with our builds and as nice as it is when it's first laid has it's downfall not long after. It'll both crack due to land movement and fade due to wear and sun exposure anyway and it can be a costly investment
You are definitely right, asphalt is waaaaaay cheaper than anything else out there. I wonder if there's something that you can spray or even paint on once it has faded to keep it looking new for years to come? I may have to ask the guys tomorrow...i'll keep you posted
But we actually love the look of it and it will compliment the style of house we are looking to build. And the price is attractive too.
