James Bond: Goldfinger The original car came to its first mission in the James Bond spy thriller "Goldfinger" in 1964 and has been modelled in various scales since. The model in 1/43rd scale by Corgi was introduced in 1965 and proved to be a best seller. It had the same special functions as the original car: remote controlled ejector seat, bullet-proof screen, extending over-riders, secretly controlled machine guns, retractable cutting blades on the rear wheels and revolving number plates. My Aston Martin is a re-edition from 1995.
