Aston Martin & Maserati's 2024 Results
Re: Aston Martin & Maserati's 2024 Results
Messy indeed.
You'd have though with Ferrari's intention to limit supply and send their prices to the moon that would leave room for Aston and Maserati to grab the odd customer.
But not enough.
AMLs ability to raise cash with escalating trade wars must be causing sleepless nights in Gaydon. Not helped by their neighbours throwing in the towel on mass production and burning the house down in the hope of an upmarket relaunch.

Re: Aston Martin & Maserati's 2024 Results
AML’s figures are ridiculous: forecourts full of vehicles and increasing debt, plus Stroll moving out of the spotlight (as a non-wallflower) all suggest it is going one way .. mitigating factors- Jethro picked the Vanquish over the 12C (Ferrari not McLaren
) and Monkey liked it and said it looked incredible, but hasn’t spoke about it since driving the F12C.. I want AML to do well, but like many manufacturers, I think they’ve moved the price point too high , which worked when we had low interest rates, but no longer do… / see Porsche and Ferrari new vehicles that arent sold
Cheers,

Also in my view yes, but Richard Porter's opinion that Jaguar hasn't been making money in many years and why keep on trying to be BMW when it's not profitable also makes sense.

Trying something new and different makes sense, running blindly off a cliff.....not so much.
