Aston Martin DB5
The most famous of all Bond's cars, the Aston Martin DB5
(registration number LU 6789 or BMT 216 A or 4711-EA-62) appeared in both Goldfinger and Thunderball. Among its array
of gadgetry are two forward firing machine guns, rear firing water jets and oils slicks
and an ejector seat for those unwanted passengers. A bullet proof shield protects the rear
window, and revolving number plates make this car truly international. The Aston Martin is the personal
favourite of Desmond Llewelyn.

losing its tyres, the car remarkably drives along the railway track, but does not survive

Alfa Romeo GTV6
The property of a lady who
