Rumor has it that� Louis Vuitton has bought Aston Martin from Ford

Well, not actually �rumours� but a report from the weekly German motor magazine Autobild, (without citing its sources though) that Louis Vuitton �yes, the French company that makes the renowned handbags, has acquired Aston Martin from Ford. Additionally, the report states that Ford has kept a 15% stake in Aston Martin, with Louis Vuitton acquiring the majority share. However, since nothing is official yet we�d better wait for a statement (either from Ford or Louis Vuitton) before we start commenting.
