The late Sean Connery's Aston Martin DB5, the only one he ever actually owned, will be offered for sale at an auction this summer. The car is expected to sell for between $1.4 million and $1.8 million, according to the auction company Broad Arrow Group.
James Bond, the fictional British secret agent, has driven lots of different cars in the more than two dozen films in the series. They've included everything from BMWs and Bentleys to Chevrolets and Fords. But one car in particular, the 1964 Aston Martin DB5, is known as the"the Bond car."
The Bond car that the late actor Sean Connery first drove in the 1964 film"Goldfinger" was an Aston Martin DB5 replete with gadgets like machine guns, an ejector seat and an oil slick maker. More than 50 years later, Connery sought out a 1964 DB5 for himself and, after looking for over a year, finally bought one -- without the movie car's guns and gadgets -- in early 2018. Connery died almost two years later at the age of 90.
