Facts

1)  British luxury car marque Aston Martin's name came from one of the founders Lionel Martin who used to race at Aston Hill.



2)  The Rolls-Royce radiator grille is made entirely by hand and eye - no measuring instruments are used. It takes one man one day to make a Rolls-Royce radiator, and then five hours are spent to polish it.




3)  The BMW logo comprises four quadrants of alternating white and blue colour. This symbol clearly represents an aeroplane propeller spinning against the clear blue sky. The design of the logo actually originates from the founders of BMW who were manufacturers of military aircraft engines.
