    Maybe B&O sponsored something themselves.

    I've seen several taxi's in Copenhagen sporting large B&O ads.

    B&O have done this for years - even the Scalextric race track ("GT Racers") that kids have consists of an Aston Martin with the very same B&O stickers on them. CAR

    B&o used to sponsor John Surtees and Surtees racing in Formula One. John is still the only man to win world championships on two and four wheels! ;)

    Does anyone know which models they are thinking of fitting with B&O? Hope it is the DB9 as from time to time I have to go to the factory where they are built at Gaydon.

    I suppose the B&O option will  be available in all of Aston Martin's current models - they don't make that many models and are all luxury cars at the end of the day.

    Linn is (used to be ?) a partner for Aston Martin.

    Does this new partnership mean that B&O will provide audio systems for all the range ?

    I am confused why B&O are working with Aston Martin in the first place. Aston Martin is owned by Ford (or is it General Motors?) I am sure I heard somewhere that they are trying to sell it off because of such poor sales figures and huge losses. No wonder on a car of that price; can't be a very big market. Not sure what B&Os interest is in this.

    frankly, i find ultimate ownership not relevant.
    as a consumer of both marques, there are many other (read: historic) reasons for these selections. and i find the seeming inference that the two marques are THAT "different" just a little funny.

    Aston Martin are no longer owned by Ford. They were bought out by some Dollar Man, but I can't remember the name.
