Re: Support de Parapluie dans le Coffre d'une DB7V

J'ai envoyé un email a imago qui confirme avoir fait ces parapluies pour Aston.
Je pense au final ne pas avoir fait une mauvaise affaire sur eBay...
Ci-dessous copie du mail :

Thank you for your enquiry. We did produce these as an engineered design for Aston Martin as part of the Icon Range. These were originally produced for the launch of the Vanquish in keeping with the “James Bond” theme. At that point it was also decided to offer it as optional extra with the DB9. However, customer feedback lead them into including it as a part. When Aston was sold by Ford it’s new owners decided to move forward with a much cheaper alternative produced in the Far East. The specification of this umbrella was in machined aluminium components plated to match the plating on the cars. The canopy is in the best waterproof cotton and printed with a reflective edge. The end cap of the handle unscrews and would allow for items to be stored i.e. coins etc.
We have a very limited stock which we had in production at that time. The cost would be £300 each exclusive of V.A.T. and Carriage and when they have gone they have gone!
If this of interest to you then we shall look forward to hearing from you.
( fabriqué pour les directeurs Aston Martin)et il n'y aura plus de refabrication.
