Aston Martin DB5 Wallpapers

The Aston Martin DB5 is a British luxury grand tourer (GT) that was made by Aston Martin and designed by the Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera. Released in 1963, it was an evolution of the final series of DB4.

The Aston Martin DB5 is among the best-known cars in the world thanks to special effects expert John Stears, who modified the DB5 for use by James Bond in the film Goldfinger (1964). Although Ian Fleming had placed Bond in a DB Mark III in the novel, Stears persuaded the company to make its Aston Martin DB5 prototype available.

There were a total of four Goldfinger Aston Martin DB5s. Two of these were used in filming, and two were used only for promotional purposes. The first filming car, DP/2161/1, was added with gadgets. This Aston Martin DB5 was the original prototype and was painted Dubonnet Red. Before it appeared in Goldfinger, it was used in episode 2.17, "The Noble Sportsman," of The Saint.

To promote the film, the two Aston Martin DB5s were displayed at the 1964 New York World's Fair, where it was dubbed "the most famous car in the world," and subsequently, sales of the car rose.

Since the film, the Aston Martin DB5 has become closely associated with the James Bond franchise and is considered the ideal vehicle of the character. As such, it has reappeared in subsequent films over the years. Within the universe of James Bond, the same car (registration BMT 216A) was used again in the following film, Thunderball, a year later.

The Goldeneye Aston Martin DB5 currently resides at the London Film Museum in Covent Garden. Of the three cars used in the production, one car was filmed for the static ocean side shot, one's participation is unknown, and Aston Martin DB5/1885/R was driven in the chase scene against the Ferrari in Monte Carlo. Aston Martin DB5/1885/R was bought at a Christie's auction in 2001 and entered the Guinness Book of Records that year for the highest paid for an item of Bond memorabilia. It was first exhibited at the Bond exhibition at Beaulieu before moving to its new home in the London Film Museum.

In 2019, it was confirmed by Aston Martin that the car would be featured in the next Bond film, No Time to Die, to be released in October 2021. The plan was to build a replica, not use an existing vehicle—eight replicas Aston Martin DB5 stunt cars were made for the movie.
