Cette anthologie rend hommage aux voitures de James Bond. Bien qu'Aston Martin soit en quelque sorte la marque « officielle » des voitures de James Bond, d'autres marques sont apparues au cours des films. Du petit coupé cabriolet bleu loué (James Bond 007 contre Docteur No) à la Bentley décapotable (Bons baisers de Russie), du bus londonien (Vivre et Laisser Mourir), à la Lotus Esprit très spéciale qui se transforme en sous-marin, (L'Espion qui m'aimait), les voitures de James Bond qui, au fil des temps s'équipent de radar omnidirectionnel, de missiles stinger, de système d'autodestruction, de parachute, sont l'occasion de courses effrénées, de cascades inoubliables.

Once a common sight on Britain's roads, few people today seem to have heard of the Bond Minicar not a diminutive, gadget laden conveyance for the fictional 007 character, but a popular, practical, motorcycle-engined, three-wheeler that in the post-war austerity period, gave tens of thousands of people affordable personal transport at a time when conventional vehicles were beyond the reach of the average household. Yet whilst the later, mostly imported, 'Bubble cars' have remained in the public eye, it is largely forgotten that the first of the postwar 'Microcars' to go into significant production was the British designed and built Bond. Equally enigmatic seems to be the designer of this vehicle, Lawrence 'Lawrie' Bond a prolific automotive design genius, with a penchant for weight-saving construction techniques. He was responsible for a wide range of two, three and four wheel vehicles; from ultra-lightweight motorcycles and scooters, such as the Minibyke, Lilliput and Gazelle, as well as his other Microcars the stylish Berkeley and perhaps less-than-pretty Opperman Unicar and finally to his later work, including the innovative, but troubled Bond 875 and styling the Equipe GT sportscar.Here the story is told in full, covering all Lawrie's innovative designs and the various vehicles that bore his name, all in prolifically illustrated detail, together with his passion for motor racing, which resulted in a number of technically acclaimed racing cars, some of which can still be seen competing is historic racing events today.

From the DB5 to the Lotus Esprit, this is the ultimate guide to collecting Bond's diecast and model cars.
