If you’ve ever watched a James Bond film and thought you’d like to be more like the iconic spy, you now have a chance to do just that.

One of the Aston Martin DB5s specifically built for ‘No Time To Die’ is about to go on sale. There were actually eight of these cars made for filming purposes but this is the only one that will be available for someone to add to their own private collection.

It’s worth noting that the car is being sold as a collector’s item instead of being sold as a road legal car. As it has so many modifications due to the requirements of the production of an internationally successful film, it will be unlikely that you will ever be able to drive your new DB5 on the road.

However, as far as collectors items go, this is one that takes things to a whole new level. With a 3.2 litre straight 6 petrol engine, manual gearbox, and carbon fibre body panels, you will certainly get a very cool car for your money (even if you can’t actually drive it to the shops).

Speaking of money, the estimated price for this legendary car is between £1.5 and £2 million. For that, you get entirely bespoke braking and suspension systems as well as the carefully created “damaged” side panel.

At Bridge Classic Cars, we have had several DB5s in the workshop (like the one in our photo below) so we know first-hand how good these cars are in real life. When it comes to the one going on sale though – we can only imagine how good James Bond’s take on this classic car will be.
