 Aston Martin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aston Martin was founded in 1913 by Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford.
The 1929 Aston Martin International was another successful racer and was followed by the Le Mans and the Ulster.
The very British glamour of Aston Martin cars meant they were a natural choice for the character of James Bond, author Ian Fleming giving his hero a DBIII in the seventh novel, Goldfinger.

 Aston Martin - WOI Encyclopedia Italia
Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd. is a British luxury car manufacturer, based in Newport Pagnell in Buckinghamshire.
The very British glamour of Aston Martin cars meant they were a natural choice for the James Bond series of action films, notably the silver DB5 that appears in Goldfinger (1964) and Thunderball (1965) as James Bond's company car, and then in GoldenEye (1995) and Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) as his private car.
Interestingly, the filming of the Aston going over the cliff was not considered dramatic enough by the director (due to the explosion looking too "faked") and so rather than destroy another Aston, a Lancia mocked up to look like its British counterpart was pushed over the edge for the second take.

 Enduring Racer
Martin Nimrod was one of the earlier machines to be built to group C regulations and it’s a brute, looming large around that Aston Martin Tickford V8, with a classic race car layout but sturdily built to withstand the rigors of high-speed endurance racing.
Nimrod is, apparently, an old Hebrew word for valiant, but its modern meaning is 'great hunter, or sportsman,' a well-chosen tag for such a machine then.
The Nimrod's chassis structure is essentially comprised of two large box sections, one on each side, linked by the floor and the bulkheads behind the cockpit, over the driver's legs and ahead of the pedals.

The 1929 Aston Martin International was another successful racer and was followed by the Le Mans and the Ulster before the company, now owned by Sir Arthur Sutherland, decided to concentrate on road cars in 1936.

During 1974, Staffordshire Aston Martin dealer, Robin Hamilton, began competing a 1970 DBS V8 (#10038/RC) in AMOC club events.
During three years of development, with the car modified almost beyond recognition, the chassis number was changed to RHAM/1 (Robin Hamilton Aston Martin #1) with the intention of competing in the 1977 Le Mans 24 hour race.
Whilst this could never be seen as a works car, support was provided by the factory, and indeed lessons learned from the wind tunnel were applied to the V8 Vantage in the form of front air dam and rear spoiler.
