I have two favorites (I'm greddy :D )

The Classic Bentley (From Russia With Love); and
The Aston Martin Vanquish (Die Another Day) which "is fitted with the latest weaponry including machine-guns and missile launchers. One of 500 hand-assembled but unarmed copies of this car can be yours, should you have the $345,000 price of admission."

ASton DB5, Vanquish etc etc. Yep beautiful.

But my favourite is the Esprit in

in The Spy Who Loved Me.

Local museum has all the Bond cars, including the 2CV and Renault taxi :)

They found the underwater shell that was actually used in the movie rotting on an island in the Caribean and it's on display. It had just been left behind when they finished filming :)

It's another museum opened by the same guy.
I've had talks with them about them keeping my Alpine ( it was main feature in TV series in UK ) when I'm not using it.

They've more cars than they can reasonably find space.
Edinburgh airport site was a cheap place for them to store more cars.
Allowing people in to see it is icing on their cake.
They make thir money out of people hiring and using cars for promos.
The Batmobile is currently at Edinburgh.
NO ONE is allowed to take photos inside the car.
A rule from the film-makers they guy said.
He stores the car and whenever they want it he has to make it available.
Currently they've got all the Bond cars in the collection there just now.
As well as the Indiiana Jones truck and motrobike/sidecar.
and the Trotters van :)

If you're stuck at Edinburgh Airport it's certainly more interesting than reading the car magazines in W.H.Smiths :)

What a great topic.....

I'd call it a tie between the DB5 from From Russia With Love and Goldfinger, and the submersible Lotus from The Spy Who Loved Me.

Honorable Mention goes to the two AMC's in The Man With The Golden Gun (the '74 Matador driven by the villain that sprouted wings and flew, and the '74 Hornet that Bond did the Spiral Jump over the river with.)

the vanquish is the best car ever used in a bond movie.'die another day is the only james bond movie that i have seen. i never got aroung to see any other parts. the second best car would be the silver 7 series used in a previous movie. i read that they drove the 7 series from the 3rd floor of a perking on to a shop. the total damage cost was around $100,000. 2 weeks ago there was an old bond movie coming on tv. i dont remeber its name but it starred sean connery. the car was a classic with a bulletproof shield that pops out from the trunk to protect the rear windsheild. my dad didnt let me watch coz i had to study for exams.

Hmmm, this is a toughy. I would have to say my favourite bond car is the DB5 from Goldfinger/Goldeneye, simply because it is the quintisesential bond car, my favourite chaser car has to be the Ford Taunus from TSWLM, simply for the way it is flung off the road and into the house roof at a near perfect 90 degree angle. The worst bond car: definately the AMC's used in TMWTGG, BURN THEM ALL!

oh, and acronyms, just for the utterly confused:
TSWLM: the Spy Who Loved Me
TMWTGG: The Man With The Golden Gun

just a little thing of detail also, the Car used as a pursuer in Tommorow Never Dies is in fact a black Ford Granada/Scorpio, not a Sierra, and also in A View To A Kill the Baddie also drives a Range Rover.

The 1964 Lincoln Continental is in my opinion the coolest of all Bond-cars. It is featured in Goldfinger when a gangster (of course) is being driven by odd-job. The gangster gets shot and the car gets crushed. What a shame!

I really like the 2000GT, in my opinion it looks quite similar to a TVR.

I reckon if Back to the future had not used it, the Delorean DMC-12 would have been a Bond car, it just seems like the sorta car he would use, futuristic styling and everything.

For the longest time, I thought that was a Mustang. And as it turns out, it does bear a striking resemblance to the '69's.

Anyway, my fav far and away is the DB5. Beautiful. It probably was at its best in Goldfinger, but damn did it sound good in Goldeneye. Stole the show from that Ferrari, at least for me personally.

I am biased by my appreciation of the first four movies (Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger and Thunderball), Terence Young and Guy Hamilton directed them elegantly.

So I go with the Aston Martin DB5 (with modifications. . .) and Goldfinger's Rolls-Royce Phantom 337. The Bentley in From Russia with Love should have been featured more. Luciana Paluzzi's blue Mustang in Thunderball was a nice touch.

Aston Martin Vanquish and Jaguar XKR from Die Another Day. Never new there was a F355 in Goldeneye.

The F355 appeared at the start, when the russian chick (name was something like Iwana humpalot from memory) passed Bond's DB5 on a mountain road.

My favourite Bond car would probably be the Vanquish from Die Another Day, but I hate how the car can turn invisible. Die Another Day is probably my least favourite James Bond movie - even though it was directed by NZ's own Lee Tamahori. The CGI is shocking!

Mine happens to be the Esprit Turbo in "For Your eyes only" which is also my favourite Bond movie. I like the skiis loaded on top of the rear screen. Pity there was no chase in that car. I would've loved to see the skiis turn into rockets : )))

The Mondeo could've been really pimped! lol But the DBS is desirable...

I loved the DBS- didn't like the way it was treated.

Put my vote in here a while ago...forgot about the aforementioned AMX as well as the '71 Mustang Mach 1...that bad boy had a 429 big block, too.

The DB5.
Exactly. It is the Bond car. All the others have tried but failed.

i'll have to say the vanquish for me since the dbs didn't get a enough screen time for me to actually get to appreciate it.

Pretty much. Except, wasn't it technically a DB4 Mk.V?

Was it? I think it was a DB5, but if it wasn't whatever it was. ;)

While the DB5 is the quintensential Bond car, I really liked the 2000gt in "You only live twice" They had planned on using it stock as the fastback coupe, but Sean Connery barely fit inside so they chopped the top of a couple. This became a customer conversion on a few of the 2000gts Toyota sold in '67, although it really hurts there value now. Pic is an original coupe

The DB5, the original JB car, even in Casino Royale you could fell how special it was when he drove it around the hotel entrance.

Has anyone seen the new James Bond trailer?! The DB5 looks incredible in it.

Incredible... and not very real. I'm more interested in the V8 Vantage briefly seen in it.

I think James Bond has jumped the shark. It's not as bad as Pierce Brosnan's last few movies, but I just don't think the story is that great.

In recent movies the Jaguar CX-75 was really pretty.
