This car is the Aston Martin Atom, a concept car built in 1939, and was photographed at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1995. David Brown, the owner of Aston Martin from 1947 to 1972, apparently decided to buy the company after driving this car and the first David Brown car, the DB1 (see photograph below), was based on the Atom.
