Aston Martin Company Information
One of the ways you can tell the high quality and production values of an Aston Martin is its presence in popular culture. The British auto maker has been in business for nearly a century and their origins as Bamford and Martin in 1913 means that the current line was born out of a commitment to tradition. The V6 and V8 engines, aerodynamic body and high level of customization mean that any offering by this company is perfect for movie stars and celebrities.
The presence of Aston Martin cars in the media goes back to their use in the French Grand Prix of the 1920s. The maker's products were used in all of the James Bond films featuring Sean Connery in the 1960s and Timothy Dalton in the 1980s. This vehicle line has also been featured as the vehicle of choice for Hugh Laurie's Bertie Wooster in Jeeves and Wooster as well as part of the mayhem in The Italian Job.
