Aston Martin DB5 voted to luxury movie car

  • Aston Martin DB5 voted to luxury movie car

Who can forget the 1964 Aston Martin DB5; it’s the car James Bond relied upon to get him out of a sticky situation in the movie ‘Goldfinger’, every time coming to the rescue. This iconic car was recently voted as the top luxury car used in a movie in an expert poll, which also featured Steve McQueen’s legendary mustang in ‘Bullitt’ and the 1982 Pontiac Trans Am from ‘Knightrider.’

The James Bond Aston Martin was a heavily adapted version of the original DB5, fitted with everything to keep him alive during the mission. With its bulletproof shield, revolving number plates and of course the ejector seat; the car never looked likely to let him down. The original 1964 model was sold at auction last year to American car enthusiast Harry Yeaggy for a cool £2.6 million.
