Daniel Craig has decided to help other men become more like James Bond. No, he won't be giving lessons in seduction or sleuthing, but he will be selling off his own limited edition Aston Martin.
There were only 100 models built of the 2014 Vanquish, of which Craig was gifted the 007th.
Nice.
Craig has decided to sell the car to raise proceeds for youth charity The Opportunity Network. It will be on show at Christie’s in LA from 27 February to 3 March before an auction, in which it is expected to reach between $400,000-$600,000 (£284,000-£426,000).
The midnight blue Aston Martin is a left-hand drive and has a deep blue leather seating interior. It can reach 60mph in four second and its 5.9 litre engine can reach speeds of 200mph. All the better for escaping your enemies, or popping out to get a pint of milk.
Craig commented: "This Aston Martin Vanquish is a tour de force of automobile engineering and a distinct pleasure to drive. While I will miss it, I am keen to further the very important work of The Opportunity Network with its sale."
Bond outclasses us yet again.
