Britain's deadliest secret agent needs suitably lethal wheels, fully stocked with extras from rocket launchers to ejector seats. An exhibition opening this month in London lets you spy on 50 years of James Bond's rides, from 007's iconic 1960s Aston Martin to the miniature 1/3 scale Agusta Westland helicopter used in the climax of Skyfall. James Bond's deadliest cars, boats and jet packs (photos) 1-2 of 35 Scroll Left Scroll Right Bond in Motion features many of the classic cars employed by 007 and his many nefarious foes, including the sixties Aston Martin DB5 that's become synonymous with the suave superspy, the BMW controlled by an Ericsson phone, and the car driven by the one woman who managed to tie James Bond down. The submersible Lotus Esprit S1 from The Spy Who Loved Me, nicknamed 'Wet Nellie', joins the mini-helicopter nicknamed 'Little Nellie' from You Only Live Twice, and the jet pack from Thunderball among the vehicles that take Bond off-road. We employed our spy skills to sneak in for an early look, so join us by hopping into the iconic Aston and taking the wheel for a high-speed chase through Bond history -- oh, just don't touch that big red button... Bond in Motion is at the London Film Museum in Covent Garden in London from 21 March, running throughout 2014.
