The last ten are listed on Wikipedia. As they are doing Rolls Royces it would have been nice to see Draco's Rolls from OHMSS and also M's Roll parked outside Quarterdeck in OHMSS.

But then we have been very spoilt with this excellent series.

I can think of one or two more cars that could have been included, such as the police vehicles in DAF and LALD (the Sheriff's car and the state troopers vehicles), the Mercedes Benz cars chasing after Bond in Goldfinger, or the security guard cars and trikes used in DAF. Some of the choices have been obvious, some quite curious.

One of the more unique models.

So, at the end, it seems that there's not going to appear the Aston Martin DB5 from Casino Royale in this collection (model that was originally planned as the final issue of the magazine)!!

No, and it is a shame, I think the DB5 from Casino Royale would have rounded it off nicely. Unless........ suppose Eon announced that Bond 23 was to go into production next summer, with a release date of summer 2012? Would our car collection suddenly extend to the following year, including vehicles from the next movie? Just a thought that occurred to me.

Out of curiosity, has anyone ordered any back issues of the magazine at all?
Is it a straight forward enough website thing or do you need to be a subscriber?

Thanks.

I guess we will have to settle for the CR's Aston Martin DB5 from Corgi, which is (imo) at least better than the one from Minichamps- that nonetheless being supposedly more detailed, lacks the Bond figure among others omissions and plain mistakes-.
