Notes
The hardest to find box version of this popular James Bond Aston Martin. Issued during 1973 only in this slim blue and yellow window box.
This James Bond DB5 has a silky metallic silver finish, fully-functioning. Ejector seat mechanism (functions properly), revolving number plates, retractable machine guns, tyre slasher blades, telescopic over-riders – this car is literally loaded with features!
The silver paint finish is all original and in very close to mint condition. Note the bright gold radiator. Rear bullet screen. Detailed spoked wheels with slasher blades. Suspension is very fine indeed on all four wheels.
The eagle-eyed may spot couple of (probably factory assembly) marks on the bonnet.
Fresh, clean and still-sealed Instruction Packet, so inside, there will be the Secret Instructions, badge, and a complete and unused sheet of number plates. Additional spare villain, too.
The scarce blue and yellow window box is complete, vividly-coloured, with intact original cellophane ‘window’. Looking at it most critically, one will note the small faint crease on the top surface. Wonderfully fresh and crisp, with day-one vibrant colours throughout.
This is a special item, reluctantly released from a Corgi Collection in the U.S. We have not seen better.
