New dad Simon Cowell has splashed out a whopping £2,000 on an Aston Martin pram for new baby boy Eric.

It seems that the X-Factor boss wants his son to enjoy the same luxuries he does, forking out for the top-of-the-range buggy that’s based on the Aston Martin’s flashy £1.2 million One-77 model.

There is currently only 800 models of the pram or “the world’s most outstanding contemporary baby travel system”, available for purchase.

Simon and his partner Lauren Silverman bought the pricey pram on a recent shopping trip to Harrods.

The pram features a hand stitched Italian leather interior, and is modelling off the £1.2 million Aston Martin One-77 coupe.

Simon recently insisted he was “born” for fatherhood, although he admitted he had his doubts before the birth of his son.

He said, “I was born to be a dad … I actually said to Lauren beforehand, ‘What if I like the dogs more than him?’ – and she said, ‘You’re gonna be absolutely fine,’ and then literally within seconds of him being born, I got it!”
