UK car manufacturer Aston Martin is seeking licence approval for its £120,000 ($167,000) new Vantage model in the European Union, rather than the UK's Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA), due to uncertainty surrounding Brexit. Although the government has pledged to align itself with some EU regulations post-Brexit, it is not clear whether VCA approval will be among them, and extend to the whole of Europe, as it does currently. In a case of divergence, Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer said the company would probably also seek a UK licence.
