The first deliveries of the limited-runAston Martin DB5 Goldfinger Continuation , an exact replica of the car featured in theJames Bond filmcomplete with working gadgets, have begun – with the British firm gathering five of the 25 examples together to mark the occasion.
The £3.3 million creation is an exact replica of theDB5 driven by 007 in Goldfinger , with each handcrafted byAston Martin Worksin Newport Pagnell. More than 4500 hours were spent constructing each example, using original body panels and a 4.0-litre 290bhp in-line six-cylinder engine driven through a five-speed transmission.

They include rotating numberplates – using the licence numbers seen in the film – a ‘bulletproof' rear deflector, headlight ‘machine guns', battering rams, an oil spray system and a smokescreen.
The interior of the cars features an armrest containing the hidden gadget switchgear, a radar console and a telephone built into the driver's door. Although the ejector seat could not be included for safety reasons, the roof panel can be removed to simulate the effect.
