Australian pays four million dollars to drive Aston Martin One-77

Melbourne, May 4 (ANI): One Australian buyer has already put down 200,000 dollar deposit and will take delivery of the four million dollar Aston Martin One-77 in Italy.

According to The Australian, the One-77 will be built in a limited edition of just 77 and Aston is still looking for some mega-rich buyers.

The buyer in question says he will pay the balance amount of about 3.8 million dollars once all the relevant taxes have been applied.

The hand-built car, priced at Lira 1.05 million (2.03 million dollars), is more expensive than the Bugatti Veyron or Ferrari Enzo.

Before delivery, the Aussie buyer will be flown to Britain for a test drive and initial fitting at the Aston Martin headquarters at Gaydon in the English Midlands.

Aston Martin's sales manager for Australia Marcel Fabris said no one outside the company had driven the car yet and many of its vital statistics are still secret. (ANI)
