The Bond forum has been running on empty of late which got me thinking about cars & which 007 vehicle is schmoes favourite?

For me it's a toss up between the Aston Martin in Goldfinger (which I've actually sat inside although not driven) & the Lotus Esprit from The Spy Who Loved Me.

Worst car is definitely the invisible Aston Martin from Die Another Day.

Nothing wrong with the car mind but invisibility ...

:rolleyes:

You sat inside the DB5!?!?!

That one's definitely the best.



P.S. Thanks for the new threads. It's almost depressing to check this forum every day and see the limbo that the James Bond franchise is in.;)

I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the AMC Hornet.

Yeah, it's kept at a place called Jersey Pearl on the Channel Island of Jersey.

They've got loads of movie memorabilia including some cadillacs which used to be owned by Elvis.

And I used to own an AMC Pacer...loved that car...

My favourite Bond car(s):

From Russia with Love: Derby Bentley
Tomorrow Never Dies: BMW iL

Bond gets the best cars...What I would give to have a couple of machine guns tucked away behind the headlights or sidewinder missiles to help get through the morning commute to work.:D

The Aston from GOLDFINGER, definitely. Sexiest car ever, hands down.

Seeing the GOLDENEYE Aston was extremely nice too, especially racing Xenia's Ferrari. Beautiful cars.
