Is that truth or rumour? If it's truth, then it's idiocy and Aston Martin deserve no better than British Leyland got. And with decisions like that, it's exactly what they'll get.
I hope it is only available to current owners or Aston will end up being the new "cock" brand if every Audi, soft-roader and Merc Sportcoupe owner buys one.
All I can say is What the F**k!!?? Seriously? I mean Aston Martin is known for loud noises abd not that minger of a car. I think the designers are on crack or eco-crack...
It's obviously meant as a courtesy car, they realise how often their cars need to be serviced or repaired, and that wags need something to go shopping in.
