Why Aston Martin Is Special
The legendary Aston Martin brand was introduced in 1914 by Robert Bamford and Lionel Martin. The company made its name by producing awarding winning race cars, including cars that competed in the 1922 French Gran Prix. After years of making road cars and a number of ownership changes, Aston Martin introduced the DB2, which was powered by an innovative dual overhead cam 2.6 L straight-6. From this vehicle came their most famous model, the Aston Martin DB5, which is also known as the car that James Bond drove in Goldfinger (1964). An Aston Martin vehicle was featured again in the 1986 James Bond film The Living Daylights and continued growing under a number of owners. In 2013, Aston Martin signed a deal with Daimler AG to supply Mercedes engines for the current line of Aston Martin vehicles.
