How cool is that?

Pretty cool, but not quite as cool as having "J. Bond" on your sales invoice - guy that sold it to me was a Mr. Bond, but not a James. :lol:

007 was the number on my prison top after debating on a roadster what's best Z3 or Z4 with a Z4 owner in traffic it got quite heated but i stood by the fact the Z4 at the front looks like a shark being t-bagged and the rear looks like Michelle McManus!

Anyone here remember Ursula Andress walking out of the sea in the very first Bond film? This had a very profound effect on me!
Halle Berry's appearance was just an affectionate tribute I think, but no doubt it had the same effect on those younger than myself.

Exactly.

The early Bond films were the best, they were actually believable. Not like the later claptrap. But the books were excellent!

This is my friends Lotus esprit, he's a car nut
He has spent a few bob on it
He didn't need to do it, its immaculate he just likes spending his money on it
A new white interior with blue piping and a few exterior mods.
I amazed its still going up in price, he was offered 28k recently
He was thinking of selling, he is 6ft.4" in height a bit tall for an esprit, but cant sell it :D
Sad to say very much like mine, it spends most of its life in the garage covered up :(
