A full account of Aston Martin from the early years to the dawn of the Sir David Brown era. Included in the book are: a complete competition history; technical data; engineering drawings; advertisements; previously unpublished photographs of the Martin family, its cars and the models that followed.
After several changes of ownership the small Aston Martin company had little money to create the new models it needed. In 1987 Ford stepped in purchasing a 75% interest. They returned to racing and eventually produced the beautiful DB7. These articles follow the development of the models with their introduction, road tests, technical data, driving and comparison tests and background.
The models covered are: V8, Aston Martin Vantage, Aston Martin Lagonda, Vantage Zagato, Volante, Virage, AMR-1, Vantage, Virage 6.3, DB7, Virage Volante, Oselli Virage.
This is the first of five portfolios covering the story of Aston Martin and tells in detail the lIfe and adventures of early Aston Martin cars Aston Martin was started by Bamford and Martin and after a constant struggle to stay afloat, the company failed in 1925. But the name Aston-Martin was rescued, first by Renwick & Bertelli, and then by Gordon Sutherland in 1933
