Solution 1:

the association proxy requires either that target object has a single-argument constructor which will create the appropriate intermediary object, or that creator is specified which establishes how to create a ColorVehicle:

vehicles = association_proxy('vehicles_and_colours', 'vehicles', 
                creator=lambda vehicle: ColorVehicle(vehicle=vehicle))

colours = association_proxy('vehicles_and_colours', 'colours', 
               creator=lambda color: ColorVehicle(color=color))
