Infographic: A history of James Bond's famous cars

James Bond and Aston Martin go together like a tuxedo and a license to kill, but everyone's favorite international man of mystery has been behind the wheel of more than just British sports cars during his long and sordid career. The good people at CarBuzz have worked up a lengthy infographic detailing the long history of British Intelligence vehicles piloted by none other than 007. Bond has even held the keys to a Ford LTD on at least two occasions in what could only be a practical joke from Q. He's also helmed such classy rides as a Lincoln Mark VII and an Audi 200 Avant.

That was long before Pierce Brosnan sent a BMW Z8 to its grave or Daniel Craig skipped an Aston Martin DBS V12 off its roof. Of course, as the graphic points out, these are just the cars that 007 has driven over the years. The spy has also commanded a couple of tanks, at least one bus, six helicopters and 20 boats or submarines.

i recall he had a 7 series as well?

 

and the z3

 

Pierce Brosnan was on a BMW R1200C in Tomorrow Never Dies.

 

Yes, in the Timothy Dalton Bond movie ......

 

Aston Martin DBS the most beautiful hands down

 

Going through the list, I hope the Aston Martin One-77 makes it in the next movie.

 

Where the hell is the 2000GT?

 

i agree!!!

 

That's what I was thinking.

 

Maybe omitted due to the fact that it isn't Bond's car ?

 

Too expensive and rare to get banged up or destroyed , they might have to create one digitally

 

When the BMW Z3 roadster first came out in 1996, it was featured in the Bond "Golden Eye" film. I didn't see an image of it on the list....though it may have been mentioned in the fine print.

The Z3 was a very hot-selling and much-hyped car at the time, and production, like with the soon-to-follow Porsche Boxster, couldn't keep up with demand.

 

always loved the aston martins in bond

 

lol @ submarine, tanks, helicopters for vehicle of choice, like a boss!
