Perhaps I'll leave it a bit and see if anyone can figure it out.

Hmmm. So you buy a 3 litre s-type and a couple of weeks later you have a shed load of s-type parts for sale. But not any of the running gear.






I still have no idea

Not even the wheels and tyres.

Although the ecu and throttle body are available (which makes it even more interesting)

My favourite would be OHMSS, with You Only Live Twice a close second.

When I'm rich,the first thing on my shopping list will be an original Aston Martin DBS (not the ghastly V8 with the bulges and spoilers), with chrome wires wheels.

Well, the fact that you say bond instead of James Bond, I guess you must mean Barry Nelson, although that was a Jimmy Bond rather than a James


Ain't wikipedia marvellous?


So when had Bond driven a Rootes Group car then?

The first screen appearance is a good one for annoying pub quiz callers

Well, somebody blinked and the first bid is in.

Whoever buys it will be told about this forum, and advised to join it.

I am really surprised that it wasn't snapped up for the BIN price

Let's hope there is a flurry of bidding
