 Aston Martin Reviews | Specifications | Pictures | Products | Dealerships
The very British glamour of Aston Martin cars meant they were a natural choice for the James Bond series of action films, notably the silver DB5 that appears in Goldfinger (1964) and Thunderball (1965) as James Bond's company car, and then in GoldenEye (1995) and Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) as his private car.
Interestingly, the filming of the Aston going over the cliff was not considered dramatic enough by the director (due to the explosion looking too "faked") and so rather than destroy another Aston, a Lancia mocked up to look like its British counterpart was pushed over the edge for the second take.
Aston Martin has also had a presence in the toy industry; one of the most famous toy cars ever was the Corgi James Bond Aston Martin DB5, pictured here.
