Aston Martin - some short history and why I chose this nickname
Aston Martin's - How Good Are They?
Well, let's consider the fact that Kobe Briant jumped over this car...Among other things, how good is this car really? Is it worth buying at this point of economy really?
I have to give some credit to this company as the New Year is approaching. Because I have a nickname associated, but not only. I like the name and I may like the car (never drove it - as of yet).
I wish the best for the company in the New coming Year! I apologize for using their copyright name for my nickname, it was just a catchy name then when I chose this nickname. I will have to figure out something else some time soon!
Some people apparently really like this car, which is why it must be so popular as it is today.
This is a company from Britain. Aston Martin Lagonda Limited is it's full name. It manufactures luxury cars
===
The company name is derived from the name of one of the company's founders, Lionel Martin, and from the Aston Hill speed hillclimb near Aston Clinton in Buckinghamshire[2] - Wikipedia excerpt.
===
In 1913 Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford founded the company ( I did not realize it has such a long history, really up until this moment of writing).
===
The two had joined forces as Bamford & Martin the previous year to sell cars made by Singer from premises in Callow Street, London where they also serviced GWK and Calthorpe vehicles. - another quote from Wikipedia
===
===
Later that year, Bill Renwick, Augustus (Bert) Bertelli and a number of rich investors, including Lady Charnwood, took control of the company and renamed it Aston Martin Motors, and moved it to the former Whitehead Aircraft Limited works in Feltham. Renwick and Bertelli had been in partnership some years and had developed an overhead cam 4 cylinder engine, using Renwick's patented combustion chamber design, and had tested it in an Enfield Allday chassis. It was the only 'Renwick and Bertelli' motor car made. It was known as 'Buzzbox' and survives to this day.
-Wikipedia (again)

They had planned to sell this engine to motor manufacturers, but having heard that the Aston Martin car was no longer in production they realised that they could capitalise on the reputation of the Aston Martin name (what we would now call the brand) to give themselves a head start in the production of a completely new car.
Between the years 1926 and 1937 Bertelli was the technical director of Aston Martin, and the designer of all subsequent Aston Martin cars during this period, these being known as the 'Bertelli cars'. They included the 1 1/2 litre 'T-type', the 'International, the 'Le Mans, the 'MKII' its racing derivative the 'Ulster, and the 2 litre 15/98 and its racing derivative the 'Speed Model'.
Mostly open two seater sports cars and mostly bodied by Bert Bertelli's brother Enrico (Harry)a small number of long chassis four seater tourers, dropheads and saloons were also produced.
Bertelli was very keen to race his cars and he was a very competent driver. One of the very few motor manufacturers to actually sit in and race the cars he designed and built, the competition no doubt 'improved the breed' and the 'LM' team cars were very successful in national and international motor racing including at Le Mans and the Mille Miglia.
Financial problems reappeared in 1932 and the company was rescued by L. Prideaux Brune who funded it for the following year before passing the company on to Sir Arthur Sutherland. In 1936, the company decided to concentrate on road cars. Car production had always been on a small scale and until the advent of World War II halted work only about 700 had been made. During the war years aircraft components were made.

From Wikipedia
My Comments: I like classic and antique cars really and in New Year I will try and credit this company by possibly bying a car from them (after I start doing better with my business).
This is a great car in so many aspects starting from ellegance, luxury, design and overall performance and ending with charm, looks and physical appeal. And, of course, the ladies will like the colour red with you sitting in the middle of it!
It has participated in different movies, most notably James Bond.
Also the famous TV series "The Persuaders". Sir Roger Moore drove a yellow model there. So it has been featured in several high-profile movies and TV series.
I would recommend this classic to everyone who is considering, well, a classic car for themselves.
Over the century, many different models have been produced, such as:
- Aston Martin DB3
- Aston Martin DB3S
- Aston Martin DBR1
- Aston Martin DBR2
- Aston Martin DBR3
- Aston Martin DBR4
- Aston Martin DBR5
- Aston Martin DP212
- Aston Martin DP214
- Aston Martin DP215
- Aston Martin RHAM/1
- Aston Martin AMR2
- Aston Martin DBR9
- Aston Martin DBRS9
And others (after 2005, never drove none of these new models either).
Well, I wish you a happy New Year!
