Aston Martin was founded in 1913 by Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford. The two had joined forces as Bamford & Martin the previous year to sell cars made by Singer from premises in Callow Street, London where they also serviced GWK and Calthorpe vehicles. Martin raced specials at Aston Hill near Aston Clinton, and the pair decided to make their own vehicles. The first car to be named Aston Martin was created by Martin by fitting a four-cylinder Coventry-Simplex engine to the chassis of a 1908 Isotta-Fraschini.

Aston Martin bought the space Henniker Place in Kensington and produced their first car in March 1915. The production could not start because of the First World War broke out, and Martin joined the Admiralty and Bamford the Royal Army Service Corps. All machines have been sold to companies of Sopwith Aviation. - CAR AUTO ONLINE
