Anyone who has always wanted to drive a car from a James Bond film can now strike it at an auction.

But it probably won't be cheap.

His name is Bond.

James Bond.

His car is Martin.

Aston-Martin.

This is roughly how you could describe the relationship between 007 and its wheels.

It's comparable to those with his wives: a great love (at least in the era in which Daniel Craig embodies the British agent), but the man doesn't mind a little variety.

James Bond, for example, whose variable license plates have already been copied, has already driven BMW cars and motorcycles, a Citroën “Duck” 2 CV and actually a Ford Mondeo.

The vehicle fleets of his opponents already include a large number of third-party brands (engaged through product placement).

James Bond: Land Rover is auctioning Defender from 'No Time To Die'

Off-roaders from the British brands Land Rover and Range Rover, which now belong to the Indian Tata Group, can also be seen in some films.

This is also the case in the current film “No time to die”.

Land Rover will soon be auctioning off four of the vehicles used in stunts, but still intact, for a good cause.

James Bond: Land Rover Defender should bring 600,000 euros

The manufacturer expects the highest bids for the Land Rover Defender 110, which could sell for up to 600,000 euros.

The four-wheel drive vehicle was seen in various stunt scenes and was also used for advertising campaigns as part of the film's launch.

Interestingly, he bears the identification number 007, although the protagonist in the film no longer acts under this legendary sequence of numbers.
