The ultimate Bond collectable!!

Created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the legendary James Bond film Goldfinger, this 1:3 scale replica of the DB5 is plated in 24 karat gold and signed by Sir Ken Adam, who designed the movie prop. Created by Propshop at Pinewood Studios, the model comes complete with radio-controlled machine guns, bulletproof shield and rotating license plates.

After registering interest from some 19,000 viewers from 129 countries, Christie's sold the model online for £55,000 ($90k) to Mr. Robert Tyrrell, an English farmer and Bond fan. Proceeds benefit the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. autoblog.com/2014/09/22/gold-plated-aston-martin-db5-model-auction/
