The Bond men and their cars

An Aston Martin DBS figures in what may be the most tragic scene in a 007 film. James Bond (George Lazenby) and his bride Tracy (Diana Rigg) are parked on the roadside after their wedding when they're shot at by henchwoman Irma Bunt from a car driven by nemesis Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Bond, thinking they've both survived the attack, climbs inside to find that Tracy has been killed.
