The James Bond Ultimate Vehicles Guide is a gorgeous compilation of all the luxurious drives Bond has been featured driving throughout the years. As part of the 50th anniversary celebration of the Bond franchise, the infographic has gathered together all the cars that have helped define the crime-fighting British heartthrob in all his different character depictions.
A must-see for any Bond fan, the graph encompasses all the Bond boys. Under Daniel Craig, the Aston Martin DB5 is the primary car seen. While under Pierce Brosnan's reign as Bond, the BMW was more prominently featured. One of the most interesting components of the graph is the feature on what auto brands have been featured most throughout the Bond franchise. What is particularly interesting, though, is that the real Bond car imagined by Ian Fleming was actually none other than a fictional Bentley.
