About this car

A 1981 Aston Martin V8 Saloon with genuine James Bond provenance — this is the car driven by Daniel Craig in the 2021 film 'No Time To Die', styled after Timothy Dalton's V8 from 'The Living Daylights'. Filming took place across Norway, Italy, London, Scotland, and Windsor, making this one of the most significant Bond cars to reach the open market. It previously sold at Christie's dedicated James Bond auction in 2022 for £630,000.

Finished in Cumberland Grey Metallic over a Black interior, the car shows 33,000 miles on the clock and is equipped with a period-correct 5-speed manual gearbox paired with the 5.3-litre V8. The Aston Martin V8 Saloon — despite its name, a two-door grand tourer — represents one of the longest-running and most recognisable shapes in the marque's history, and this particular example carries cultural cachet that few cars of any era can match.

Beyond the Bond connection, this is a well-specified Series 4 V8 in a restrained colour combination that suits the car's proportions. At just under £500,000, it sits below its Christie's hammer price, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of both automotive and cinematic history.
