The BBC also has a story about a much more mundane vehicle:
James Bond's Lotus from The Spy Who Loved Me has fetched £111,500 at a London auction. The white 1976 Lotus Esprit was sold to a private US collector who was bidding over the telephone at the Bonhams sale. The buyer described himself as a Lotus and James Bond aficionado and said the car would be going to Atlanta, Georgia.
It is one of two Lotus cars - driven by Roger Moore in the 1977 film, which turned into an amphibious car when it ended up in the sea during a chase. A Bonhams spokesman said: "We are delighted with the result and delighted that it attracted worldwide attention."
Rico says it's not an Aston-Martin, even if it is amphibious...
