\n\tThe 340-page volume is curated and introduced by Chris Corbould, the Oscar-winning special-effects supervisor credited with designing and detonating Bond\u2019s biggest stunts across 15 films. Corbould not only narrates how the DB5 sprouted an ejector seat or how a Lotus Esprit became an actual working submarine, but also reveals the on-set engineering hacks, one-take miracles and near-disasters that turned these vehicles into instant cinematic icons. More than 300 photos \u2014 including behind-the-scenes stills, technical drawings and rarely seen production ephemera \u2014 trace the evolution of Bond\u2019s garage as the franchise\u2019s unofficial co-lead.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe book doesn\u2019t just spotlight 007\u2019s personal wheels. Other characters get equal mileage across a lineup that includes Bentleys, BMWs, Land Rovers, Sunseeker speedboats, Boeing 747s, snowmobiles, blimps and the one-of-a-kind contraptions cooked up by Q Branch (\u201cLittle Nellie,\u201d the tiny autogyro from \u201cYou Only Live Twice,\u201d makes a return appearance). Unsurprisingly, Aston Martin remains the franchise\u2019s most enduring marque: more than a dozen models \u2014 DB5, DBS, V8, Vanquish and more \u2014 recur throughout the book.<\/p>\n
\n\tAssouline is also marking the occasion with a limited-edition \u201c007 Trilogy\u201d slipcase pairing \u201cJames Bond Cars\u201d with the publisher\u2019s previous titles \u201cJames Bond Destinations\u201d<\/a> and \u201cJames Bond Style.\u201d<\/a> The set is housed in a brushed-aluminum case inspired by Q-grade gadgetry, complete with a raised 007 insignia.<\/p>\n \n\tShop \u201cJames Bond Destinations\u201d below, and stream the all the James Bond films here. <\/a><\/p>\n
