James Bond’s sexy car is off the market

How long have we women been in love with James Bond?  Too long for some of us.

Well, his lovely silver car has just been sold!

It’s 40 years old and so delightfully vintage, and Bond actually sat in it – Mr 007 himself!

The Aston Martin DB5 was sold for $4,608,500 – that’s £2,912,000 to us in the UK – to an American bidder called Harry Yeaggy, who’s going to put it in his private collection of classic cars somewhere in Ohio.

Private? You mean will never get to see it again? That’s terrible news!

The car still has all its Goldfinger and Thunderball gadgets on it, for example its revolving registration plate, courtesy of “Q.”

Still, I imagine that with all that gadgetry still in place, taking it for a spin would be a no-no – and I bet women’s motor insurance would get pretty expensive if you had to cover that piece of iconic film history!

On second thoughts, maybe it is safer off the road away from other traffic.
