The most recognized car in the world . . . "The James Bond Car." First used in the 1964 film GOLDFINGER. But few know that the DB5 was not the first choice by the producers. Their first choice turned them down. If they hadn't . . . this would have been "The James Bond Car:"

Only four of this four-engine biplane were ever built, but its impact on commercial aviation was still vast, particularly in Britain. Designed by Handley Page for Imperial Airways (now British Airways) in the 1920s, it was the biggest biplane airliner ever built and first took passengers in 1931 from London to Paris.

If you have Netflix, I highly recommend that you watch The Highwaymen - the story of the man (Frank Hamer played by Kevin Costner) who brought down infamous gangsters Bonnie and Clyde
