"We have a financial crisis which now has gone all around the world. I think in some ways it started here in America but has now reached Russia and the Middle East," said Aston Martin Chief Executive Ulrich Bez.

"Even in the luxury market we see hesitation," Bez told Reuters on the sidelines of the Los Angeles auto show.

"Our dealers who used to just distribute cars and celebrate and open up the champagne -- those days are over. We have to work harder."



"We will see how this develops, this uncertainty and the volatility which is in this market," Bez said. "If this uncertainty keeps going over the next 24 months, we may have a different situation."
