Last year the Bentley 'Locomotive' was featured in a YouTube video giving us a close look at the incredible details of this unique vehicle.

A Bond fan took it upon himself to recreate as closely as possible the Bentley owned by James Bond as described by Ian Fleming in the stories Thunderball, On Her Majesty's Secret Service and The Living Daylights

The story goes that the previous owner wrapped it around a lamp post on the Great West Road in London. James Bond then bought it, got the chassis straightened and had a bespoke body made.

The Mark 2 model, which is what the car is in theory based on, never really existed. The closest thing would have been an S2. except the S2 came with a V8, whereas Bond's car was described as having a straight six.

So the model as Ian Fleming described it was never officially made, but was realized by Bond fan and car designer Tony Hunter.
