World’s largest James Bond car exhibition planned for 2012

Post by Blowfeld »

The famous British special agent James Bond has a lot of fans worldwide and the Beaulieu National Motor Museum will host for them the largest 007 car exhibition.

The 50 years of James Bond film franchise will be celebrated at the British museum with an exhibition of 50 vehicles used in the 007 movies.

Fans of James Bond, along with petrol-heads, will be able to take a closer look at cars like the 1937 Rolls-Royce Phantom III used in Goldfinger, the 1964 Aston Martin DB5 from Goldeneye, the 2002 Jaguar XKR from Die Another Day or the 2008 Aston Martin DBS from Quantum of Solace.

“Following the success of the first Bond cars exhibition staged at Beaulieu in 2001, we are delighted to be working with EON again on this new display, bringing together the world’s largest collection of Bond vehicles”, said Beaulieu’s commercial director, Stephen Munn.

The exhibition will be held at the British Beaulieu National Motor Museum in January next year.

Coincidentally I'm organising a medium sized James Bond car exhibition.
Bring back Bond!
