The £2,000 model is the product of a partnership between the carmaker and Silver Cross, which has its HQ in Skipton and has been making prams since 1877.

The Aston Martin Edition of the Silver Cross Surf includes the Alcantara lined seat pad - expensive suede manufactured in Italy - and leather-trimmed handle and bumper bar.

The aluminium alloy wheels are based on the Aston Martin One-77, which retails for £1.2 million.

Silver Cross said it will only manufacture 800, ensuring it remains the “ultimate in exclusivity”.

Each pram will come with a certificate of authenticity and an engraved brushed chrome plaque to confirm that it is one of a limited edition.

Silver Cross chairman Alan Halsall said: “I am thrilled that Silver Cross and Aston Martin are working together and have produced this brand new totally exclusive pram which is a great testament to two of the most famous British brands.”

Silver Cross customers have included Gwyneth Paltrow and Britney Spears.
