Favorite Q Branch Vehicle?

in General James Bond Chat
I started thinking about this while looking over my JBCC collection so far.

For me it would be The Q Boat, I love life on the water (as rare as the opportunity is) and it got me wondering which one everyone else would choose?
This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    I always liked that little yellow helicopter that Bond flew around in You Only Live Twice.

    Most definitely Aston Martin V8 Vantage Volante from The Living Daylights.
    Lotus Esprit S1 and Aston Martin DB5's good one as well.

    LB008, it's Little Nellie..
    Dalton is the Bond! Lazenby is the other fella.

    I always thought it was spelled, "Little Nelly" but I wasn't sure about that.

    Who would not want the Goldfinger Aston as their fave Q vehicle, we all owned ones as kids , but my favourite vehicle
    is the range rover in octopussey (the one that tows the horse box ) would love one like that
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?

    Although for owning a Bond car myself, I would prefer the white Esprit Turbo from FYEO over the S1.

    I used to own a Model Aston Martin, complete with Ejector Seat and Miniature Goldfinger Henchman :))

    I can remember playing with a toy db5 as a kid long before I'd heard of,
    Or seen Goldfinger. :))

    When I was a kid I would of picked the BMW 750il from Tomorrow I thought that was the coolest Bond car when I was first becoming a fan in the early 00s. But you can only go with the DB5 its the ultimate Bond car.

    :)) I also had two toys of the lotus, one for playing on the carpet, the other
    for the bath ! :D

    Hah, that is awesome! Now when you take a bath, make sure you bring a bottle of wine to look at when it is time for the lotus to get out of the tub.
  • Unknown007Unknown007 Posts: 201MI6 Agent
    Easy for me. A tie between Aston Martin and Lotus.
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    An Aston / lotus hybrid ? Now there's an idea. :))

    The lotus would be my second choice. -{

    Its clear Corgi did a very good job in the sixties and seventies! :D

    From the cars I do like the DB5 and Boatus very much, in fact all the Bond cars are great. Though my pers favorite is the Vanquish. Powerful toys like the DB5, (I accept the cloaking device is far fetched, but its funny) with looks that will evolve into the DBS design.

    I guess I just wanted to see if others have a strong appreciation for vehicles Q designed from scratch as implied by the storyline. I also wonder if we may get any during the rest of the Craig era? Though SF in particular seems to say a categorical no.

    The DB5. Although, I wanted a Lotus too. Until I heard one and didn't like turbos at the time.
