The 1964 Aston Martin DB5 that Sean Connery drove in Goldfinger and Thunderball has sold for £2,912,000 ($4,608,500 USD / €3,328,000) at a London auction.
Bought by American Harry Yeaggy, the iconic movie car is original condition and features all of the gadgets used in the Bond movies. Speaking of the latter, the DB5 has a rear bulletproof shield, hidden Browning machine guns, a passenger ejector seat, a nail / calthrop spreader, and an oil slick sprayer. Furthermore, there's futuristic goodies (for 1964) such as a mobile phone and a radar receiver.
According to Yeaggy, "This is a car that I've always wanted, after all it is the most famous car in the world."
