6 September 2018, Newport Pagnell: Aston Martin Works’ new Heritage satellite showroom in the heart of London’s Mayfair is now open for business. Situated with the Aston Martin Brand Experience Centre at No.8 Dover Street, the Works Heritage showroom is a convenient destination for customers interested in acquiring a heritage model or learning about the restoration services available at Astron Martin Works Service in Newport Pagnell.
Paul Spires, President of Aston Martin Works, said: “The expansion of our Heritage showroom activity into Central London enables us to engage with our customers in the location where they work and live their lifestyle. It also supports the international appeal and invigorated interest in Aston Martin Heritage cars, allowing us to deliver a personal service to customers visiting the UK.”
Aston Martin has seen a growth in the market for heritage cars, highlighted by the sell-out success of the DB4 G.T. Continuation cars and the interest in the just-announced Goldfinger DB5 Continuation cars, which are both produced in Newport Pagnell, at the same factory where the original cars were made.
Aston Martin Works, based at the marque’s famous Newport Pagnell factory, cares for heritage car customers from across the globe and the new Heritage showroom provides a convenient location for its international customers.
The Aston Martin Works Heritage showroom complements the Aston Martin Mayfair dealership that has been a firm fixture on London’s Park Lane for many years, showcasing the full range of current Aston Martin models. The Dover Street showroom allows a pure heritage focus in a Central London location, meaning that the incredible heritage story of Aston Martin Works, the Newport Pagnell factory and the iconic cars built there will now reach a wider audience.
