DB stands for David Brown, an English industrialist who managed his grandfather’s gear and machine tool business. When David Brown responded to an ad in The Times in the late 1940s, he didn’t fully comprehend that his initials would be transformed into two of the most well-known letters in the automotive industry.
Many of Aston Martin’s most beautiful cars have worn a DB model name, starting officially with the DB2 in 1950.
