Driven by Sean Connery, the astounding Aston Martin DB5 is recollected in the history books as the first car to be featured in a James Bond movie. The luxurious British automobile presents a timeless style coveted by any cars’ collector. The Brand Aston Martin made several appearances during the saga, including in the latest film, Spectre, showcasing a new prototype, the BD10. Daniel Craig is one lucky person if I dare to say.

One peculiar feature from this wonderfully engineered car is that he can be entirely steered from a mobile phone. The car was driven by actor, Pierce Brosnan in the 2001 feature, and at one point, he jumps uncontrollably out of the car so as to save his life which was quite the grasping scene.

In addition, it fashions a vigorous orange shade which is simply stunning. In the picture above, you can see the incredibly talented British actress, Naomie Harris with a beautiful Jaguar besides her in an advertisement to promote the film and the car. The car was also a part of an insanely car chase between James Bond and the villainous Hinx, portrayed by Dave Bautista who was driving the car.
