LM3 had its track debut in the first ever Double 12 Hour meeting at Brooklands with Augustus Bertelli and chief mechanic Jack Bezzant sharing driving duties finishing a creditable 5th. In 1930 the original body was changed by the factory, presumably because it was too light. Not much later the vehicle became the Works Team Aston Martin development and road test car, lent out to journalists to drive and report on. Before the car was sold to Peter Farquarsonin 1932, the Astin Martin was re-registered GX599 and 129R was added to the original chassis number.

1930 was a very good year for LM4 and Aston-Martin, ‘Bert’ Bertelli and Holder drover LM4 to 2nd in class and an incredible 4th overall at the 1930 Brooklands Double Twelve; this feat warranted a glowing article in the June edition of Motorsport a copy of which, Ecurie Bertelli holds in our extensive archives. Sammy‘ Davis drove this car to 7th and 1st in class at the Irish GP at Phoenix Park. 1930 was a very good year for LM4 and Aston-Martin, ‘Bert’ Bertelli and Holder drover LM4 to 2nd in class and an incredible 4th overall at the 1930 Brooklands Double Twelve; this feat warranted a glowing article in the June edition of Motorsport a copy of which, Ecurie Bertelli holds in our extensive archives.
