@Kong -
going to have to join the disagree club
"Aston is a luxury brand that will suffer in this pandemic just like all the luxury car makers"
Call it personal opinion but Aston will only suffer when they stop having buyers.
and as stated buyers of aston's can afford the pandemic. Recession is similar. The rich will still be rich. They will show nervoussness because they wont be AS rich as before but unless they are tied up in a company that folds. they will still be rich on the other side. It doesnt take a fool to understand that.
Also as stated it doesnt take being "Rich" to afford a luxury vehicle. as stated instagrammers and influencers have enough worth these days with less sence to invest it, expecially if the nnew bond car draws in a few more views on their social media. and for the rest there are PP.
Its also naive to say just because there is a pandemic people wont buy cars even when they are in the dump.
locked inside and what do you do. shop. just been made redundant with a payout, buy away your self pity or hide it to naighbours. you get the idea. thats standard consumer habits. retail sales were up 3.9ish% in august for a 3rd month in a row. this is after the initial dip and return from -19% to -5%. yet when people were actually being made redundant sales increased.
this is not taking into account and PI that the users on this board have done calculating the orderbooks and knowing the factory workers
not the fact that you contradict yourself in your own initial post. but if your not sure were its going but sure its going down. then that means you do know where its going. atleast if you know that "not many" cars are being made?
Then again to use your own words
To win an argument against a st... you know where im going.
Every angle and all.
but if your not invested. then why bother. move along and leave save your effort
