Down with this sort of thing

The Aston Martin DB5 from Goldfinger and Thunderball is up for sale!

Yep, the Q-issue Browning .30-caliber machine guns, hydraulic bumper rams, hub-mounted tyre-slashers, revolving license plate, and passenger-side ejector seat are all present and correct. And obviously your initial reaction to this information is a resounding 'shut up and take my money'.

Gonna tentatively run this one up the flagpole though: Might you seem like less of a sex-case if you had a nice, normal DB5 instead? Just team your nice, normal DB5 with your Tom Ford suit and your Omega watch and your Sony Vaio laptop (?) for a plenty strong enough signal that you're all about the #BondLifestyle.  Better that than overly over-labouring the point?

No?  Well this one here is among the three surviving tooled-up DB5s commissioned by the 007 franchise's producers back in the day, and it's going under the hammer at Sotheby's Monterey auction this August. About $5m ought to do it.

But be sure to get your parents' permission before bidding, kids!
