This James Bond Aston Martin is in all original condition with none of the reproduction accessories, rife with this issue.
The car is fully functioning, complete with both figures. Looking unused and carefully handled, this example has a close to mint, all original, vivid gold finish:
Suspension on all four spoked wheels. Fine tread original tyres are well-shaped.
Occasional small mark to the paint finish.
