Aston Martin engineers created the A3 with chassis number 3 exactly one hundred years ago at their Abingdon Road plant in Kensington, London. The car was created as one of five prototypes produced by local workers before the official start of distribution and production of Aston Martin.

The car has a 1.5-liter engine and 11 horsepower under the hood, which was enough for him to set a speed record of 136 km / h on the Brooklands circuit in 1922. The car is currently part of the Aston Martin Heritage Trust collection and has been restored to its original condition. This is the oldest preserved car from the legendary British carmaker.
