stolen DB5 whereabouts (Page 2 of 2)

to re cap ..

the stolen DB5 was taken from an aircraft hanger in Florida .. where it was in storage..

it has been said that thiefs ... broke through a security gate with a truck .. wrapped chains around the front axle and chasis of the car and draggged it out... the hanger... onto a waiting cargo plane.. possibly just big enough to carry a single vehicle....

there was evidence of rubber markings and skidding on the hanger floor..

other reports claim it was pushed out by hand .. or hot-wired... etc

now there must have been a few involved with the crime.... no one or 2 men could do all the breaking in .. cutting the alarms in teh hanger and pulling the car out and flying the plane etc .... it was a planned job!

maybe Michael Caine was involved... Only supossed to pull the Bloody Car out! 

there was also reported failed attempts to steal the car a feew nights before etc etc .... I think this was to make the story look good..

there is too much suspect behaviour and dispute between the cars owner at the time and the guy who publicised teh car and got it publicity and made money from it on tours and exhibitions... the 2 guys were family at one point etc ...

anyway ..

the car could not have gone anywhere but onto a plane ....   and this could explain the other.. suspicions that it was dumped out in the ocean...

the whole idea of teh car being broken down.. seems too risky as there ewas a hunt on for it... at the time surely... and breaking down such a famous car would surely arise suspicion...

this is why it may have been a planned theift by a wealthy individual for there own keep.... and collection

or it was simply a planned job to destroy the car for an insurance payout ?

why hasn't that pretend Yokel.. Justin Lee Colins.. done a documentary "bring back Bonds DB5" God knows hes done everything else such as crap about the A-Team... and other wastes of time .. petrol and oxygen.. maybe time to go on the hunt for the DB5...something usefull and interesting for a change.... but i think this is more than he could handle... stick to Bad 80's ... mind rumming shows such as the Gimp Team and crap like fame .. etc

I think Louis Theroux would be the very man to track it down or get to the truth of the matter.. I could just picture him .. interviewing all the oners of the originals and the guy who owned the car before the big insurance payout... that would be fantastic

if this car was dropped in the ocean .. I am sure it would have been found by now.. surely...

the whole crime and theft of the car seems to me as if .. hardly any effort was made to recover the car .. ? no big worldwide hunt etc

Insurance Job ! is deffinetly the most obvious explanation and most realistic.

It pains me that it was not just auctioned off..

someone involved with the theft will talk eventually .. I have a good feeling about that. and then the search will be back on..

If the car was dropped at sea.. surely some shark hunters or marine biolgysts would have said at some point .. thats a bit odd! theres a jelly fish sitting on the Bonnet of that DB5 beside that rock down there...

Even if it was dropped from the cargo plane.. the height ... and the impact hitting the water .. would have seriously damaged the aluminum body work .. and from 1997 until .. present.. the cars interior will be rotted..

but some closure would be nice..

I am going with insurance Job .... and the car was dumped as one piece...

Myabe because I love the car and the DB5 and the whole Bond thing.. is why I refuse to beleive its gone forever... have to have a little faith sometimes... even when the truth is obvious.... just being nieve I know .. I know...

Unless a fishing trawller .. rescued the car from the water .. dragged it back to the shore .. and has it in an old rusty cargo container.... on the Florida coast

One thing that puzzles me also with regards to the stolen original DB5 is these parts that were suposedly from it.... I know these parts were fake replicas

http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgur … N%26um%3D1

in the Cannonball Run i KNOW THAT THE ORIGINAL DB5 Prototype gadget car was used for light film work and when Roger moore and the girls are standing beside it and insert shots of the car ,....

and for high speed car chasing and stunts a DB4 GT was used .. it was pretty rough looking and baddly sprayed... and lumpy .. and the air intake on the bonet was done very badly...

so the last know bit of film work for teh original DB5 was indeed the Cannonball Run with Roger Moore.... and the poorly replicated gadget buttons and devices can bee seen .. on film...

I did enjoy the cannonball run film and Roger Moore was a highlight.. funny stuff.... just a bit of fun .. Dont hold it against old ROGER.... and he did look very cool in the DB5 ... so at least we can all say every single Bond has drove and Aston ... WELL EVERYONE HAS DROVE A db5 ... APART FROM timothy dalton.. LAZENBY drove a DB5 with gadgets in the return of the man from uncle.... desparate times for old George..... Roger looked and was cool in the DB5. the return of the man from uncle.. was a waste of a petrol time money .. and film

another thing that puzzles me .. is that I have a newpaper clipping showing / stating that the original gear stick top with the little red button sold at auction for £40,000 or something like that .. how did that come about .. was that from the actual original prototype DB5 or from one of the promotional cars etc ....

I think a follow up book to Dave Worrall's first book is long over due... full of conspricies and speculation.. and opinions... and the continuation of the story....

I am going to make a dedication mimorial to the original DB5 on my website soon... i am hopefully going to have access to an original DB5 at a local classic car garage close to where I live.. for photographing... etc

damn...that confounds my theory that it was taken by alien collectors, kept alongside a lunar rover and the special version of the bmw x5 built for exploring mars...

human technology at it's best....

nanu nanu....

on the knob (gearstick) i was told by aston martin veterans that it was taken off one of the show cars when aston stripped them on their return, and lived  on the desk of an aston office worker (or two) for decades......

i was staggered by the hammer price (plus commissions, taxes and harrods wrapping paper) but hey, imagine the fun u can have fondling it's cap, flipping it up to reveal the big reg button....one press and you're freed from the incessant requests to slow down from the misses......

any new thoughts on this ..

Why hasnt the car been found ?

why hasnt anyone spoke out or broke there silence ?

why hasnt parts of the car been found or sold on ?

why hasnt any scuba teams searched the the Forida coast line ?

why has a car of this value just vaniashed..

surely if it was an insurance job ,, the owner would have made more money selling it on at auction and keeping it as the ORIGINAL car, rather than settling for an insurance payout ?

i think the whole thing would make for a fantastic conspiricy movie

Nonsense! I've got it! Problem is, my hooves can't reach the pedals.

I know the location of the car..My garage and no you can't have it back!
