An Aston Martin DB5, in the distinctive Silver Birch color, was supplied to James Bond by the Q Branch of MI6 in the film Goldfinger. Bond’s DB5 featured machine guns that are hidden behind the front lights, bullet shield that rises from behind the rear window, passenger ejector seat, tire slashers that extend from the center of the wheels, a smoke screen, revolving license plates and other gadgets. The Aston Martin DB5 has appeared in six James Bond films, including the most recent blockbuster, Skyfall.
The 1964 film Goldfinger starred Sean Connery as the fictional British MI6 agent James Bond. In the film, Bond investigates a gold smuggling operation run by Auric Goldfinger (Gert Fröbe), who is planning to increase the value of his gold by detonating a nuclear bomb inside the U.S. Bullion Depository at Fort Knox in Kentucky and contaminating the U.S. gold reserve. The film is based on a novel by Ian Fleming.
The film led to a number of licensed tie-in items, including a model by Corgi of the Aston Martin DB5, which became the biggest selling toy of 1964.
