Well, it’s official. Aston Martin is sold to Louis Vuitton. Yea, the French Louis Vuitton. Yea, the same company that makes the purses.
It’s hard to imagine Aston Martin, a very very British nameplate, belonging to the French, of all possible options. Hell, if I had the money, I’d have bought Aston myself, just so the French didn’t get ahold of it.
I still can’t believe it.. the French… French Aston Martin…
For what it’s worth, Ford is hanging on to 15% of Aston, but the French get the rest.
