Technical data on this car:
Chronological history of the 007 cars:
Finding the submersible James Bond Esprit
"For a James Bond movie to succeed - and for 40 years, every one has - a certain mix of ingredients is vital. There must be an arch villain, accompanied always by evil henchmen or alluring female accomplices as he pursues his nefarious scheme. There must be beautiful women for Commander Bond to be smitten by. An arsenal of high-tech gadgetry. Shaken but unstirred vodka martinis. And fast cars. Whether played by Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan or any of the other Bond actors, Secret Agent 007 always drives fast cars. "
