James Bond's iconic cars

James Bond is now a near mythical figure across almost all countries of the world, irrespective of cultures, languages or races. The suave secret agent with the ‘007’ tag and the ‘license to kill’ is well known for his love of women, liquor and probably most of all, technology. It’s only apt that the London Film Museum is now hosting a ‘Bond in Motion’ exhibition that lets visitors enjoy all of Bond’s gadgets and especially, all the cool (and weird) modes of transportation he has used over the years.
Among the vehicles on show include the Aston Martin DBS that Daniel Craig wrecked in 2008’s Quantum of Solace, the wonderfully strange Lotus car/submersible from The Spy Who Loved Me and the Jaguar XKR from Die Another Day.

The Verge has a large gallery of the cars being displayed at the exhibition, so if you’re interested, head on over there.
