DB5 Goldfinger Edition 1 of 25.... Do you have a spare £3.3m?

Like most kids in the mid 1960’s we all had the corgi model the DB5 James Bond. I gave mine way to a cousin …..

Below is my replacement

Here are the opening paragraphs on the Goldfinger car

“Given that each Aston Martin DB5 Goldfinger Continuation takes 4,500 hours to hand-make, we always expected the build quality to be sky-high, but now, with the release of new images following the completion of Job 1, we’ve the hard evidence. The first of 25 customer cars looks immaculate - the way that Aston probably dreamt it could produce cars back in 1963. In 2020 it is using the same traditions, albeit supplemented by modern technology. The result, somewhat predictably, is the best of both worlds. 

Aston Martin’s Newport Pagnell Heritage Division revealed the full list of Q-inspired additionsthese DB5 Continuation cars – each of which is priced at £3.3 million – in May, and now we can see how the features look on the actual car. The smoke screen deploys actual smoke, the nose-mounted machine guns pulsate and glow as if they’re firing real rounds, and the oil slick delivery system spurts out fluid from a moving taillight. It’s all looks authentically Bond.”
