Aston Martin, the luxury carmaker with the ‘for sale’ sign recently put out by owner Ford, could return to British ownership, according to weekend reports.


The reports said UK private equity groups Permira and Alchemy Partners were preparing bids of up to £500m along with the US buyout firm Texas Pacific Group.


Analysts have valued Aston Martin in the range of GBP350m and GBP1bn but potential buyers reportedly do not include any car makers.


Former Ford chief executive Jacques Nasser, now a partner at JPMorgan Chase’s private equity arm, One Equity Partners, is another potential bidder according to one report over the weekend.
