James Bond drives an Aston Martin DBS, the successor of the Vanquish, in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. The original DBS was first produced from 1967-1972 and featured in On Her Majesty's Secret Service in 1969. Aston Martins have long been a favourite with Bond and first appeared in Goldfinger in 1964. Over the years they have featured in a total of nine Bond films. This DBS is one of seven used in the film. Two of the cars, one with continuity damage, are currently on display at Bond in Motion, National Motor Museum, Beaulieu until December 2012.

拍品專文

The Aston Martin DBS plays a dramatic role in the opening sequence of the film in which Bond navigates the winding lakeside roads from Lake Garda to Siena, Italy, with Mr. White in the boot of the car, pursued by hostile gunmen in Alfa Romeo 159s. A high speed car chase ensues, with Bond skilfully losing each car one by one until the final Alfa shoots off a mountain road, and Bond pulls calmly into Siena, the car all but destroyed.
