About Aston Martin
Aston Martin is a classic British manufacturer of luxury sports cars and grand tourers. It was founded in 1913 by Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford. Its headquarters are in Gaydon, Warwickshire, England. In 2016 Aston Martin had revenues of £593.5 million. Aston Martin cars are considered as a British icon.
After celebrating its 100th birthday in 2013, Aston Martin is looking firmly forward to its next century of “Power, Beauty and Soul”. The first Aston Martins were created with a distinctive and individual character, handcrafted to the highest of standards, and capable of exceeding all performance expectations.
Over the past hundred years, the marque has stayed true to the original values of Lionel Martin, who believed that an Aston Martin must be “a quality car of good performance and appearance. A car for the discerning owner driver with fast touring in mind, designed, developed, engineered and built as an individual”. This philosophy has led to the creation of some of Britain’s most iconic sports cars.
