A quantum of cool for babies in the fast lane

The first thing that comes to mind at the mention of Aston Martin is Agent 007 James Bond. So it was a rather odd event that somehow managed to combine prams and the iconic British sports car.

Silver Cross may not produce sexy little sports cars that come with machine guns and rockets, but it has been making luxury prams for 135 years. And while James Bond has a "Licence to Kill", Silver Cross has a Royal Warrant, making it the British royal family's pram of choice.

This week Silver Cross released a limited edition of its Surf pram inspired by Aston Martin at an event held at Ocean Terminal. It saw Taiwanese actress and mum-to-be Cherrie Ying Choi-yi gliding down the catwalk accompanied by four roguishly handsome models, each dressed to kill and pushing a Silver Cross pram.

The lovely Ying was asked who had to deal with her mood swings, to which she wittily replied: "Whoever got me pregnant is the one that has to put up with my mood swings!"

We reckon hubby actor Jordan Chan Siu-chun, who Ying said is happy to be having a baby boy, will be extremely proud to push his new son in a limited-edition Aston Martin-inspired Silver Cross pram. The prams are individually numbered and Nick Paxton, Silver Cross Group CEO, presented Ying with the 008 along with a teddy bear and a rag doll.

Asked if she had any advice for women planning to have children, Ying said: "Don't do it if you're not ready - it's not that much fun."
