Aston Martin confirms the Cygnet and plans to sell it to anyone

Aston Martin has confirmed it will be making its opinion-dividing Cygnet city car, with the first examples set to roll out of the company's Gaydon plant next year.

The Cygnet, which is based on Toyota's iQ city car, will sell for something in the region of £30,000 when it arrives next summer. In a change from what was thought to be the original plan, Aston Martin will offer it to anyone, and not just to existing customers.
