MY TRUE PASSION ..... CARS.
A rich and prestigious brand, Aston
Martin defines itself as something truly unique in the automotive history. Founded in
1913 by Robert Bamford and Lionel Martin as 'BAMFORD & MARTIN LTD', the
company has developed a high performance brand and elegance.
In 1914, the brand was born
"ASTON MARTIN ', after a successful season MARTIN'S CLIMBING IN ASTON HILL
in England.
At the FRENCH GRAND PRIX, ASTON
MARTIN, took its first steps to
complete the race with two cars. Due to financial problems, the company was
forced to close in 1925, but a group of investors in 1926, rescued the company,
founding the 'ASTON MARTIN MOTORS LTD'.
The brand has become stronger and
has developed a strategy which placed a competitive range of sports cars,
luxury and prestige due to a growing improvement in the brand's engineering and
design.
This progress led to the
entry of Aston Martin in the famous running of the 24 Hours of Le Man in 1928.
In this test the Aston Martin with its 1.5L model was very successful in
the class AT THE 1933 RACE. In the 30s, car production continued
to increase, reaching 140 cars in 1937.
In 1950 the success of Aston Martin
increased with the participation in various events, such as the 1000km Nürburgring
and the famous LE MANS 24H.
In 2006, its newest model was first seen in the James
Bond film "CASINO ROYALE '. The launch of this model was quickly followed by the opening of Vantage V8 Roadster in LA MOTOR SHOW. The Aston Martin
continues today to be a brand of reference in the automotive world though only
accessible to the upper class.
