Though James Bond’s composure in the face of death can’t be picked up off the shelf, much of Bond’s lifestyle is up for grabs. His suits? Tom Ford. His watch? Omega. His drink? Well, you can’t blame Heineken for trying (although more fool the man who drinks his lager either shaken or stirred).

The James Bond garage is equally purchasable, and not only for men whose bank balances could stretch to an apartment carved into an active volcano. Just don’t expect quite as many optional extras as Q tends to provide.

BMW Z3 – Goldeneye

Pierce Brosnan’s wheels were a controversial choice. Though it was the first ‘foreign’ Bond car, the open-top Z3 still boasted Q’s traditional refinement, including Stinger missiles behind the headlights and a parachute. It’s arguably aged worse than the ever-youthful Brosnan, but these days makes a less common alternative to a Mazda MX-5.

Many first owners added lots of options, meaning you’ll have almost as many toys to play with as 007. And with prices starting at about £2,500, this is one Bond car you can easily get your hands on.

If it were our money, though, we’d splash a little more cash and get the Z3M. This raucous model would probably be a little brash for Bond, but it’s barrels of fun.

BMW 750iL – Tomorrow Never Dies

The 750iL was an even more controversial choice than its predecessor; not for nationality, but because it was an executive saloon. “Room for golf clubs” isn’t quite as sexy as gadgets.

It was, however, the perfect set of wheels for Bond’s cover as a banker, and did at least boast a roof-mounted rocket launcher that popped through the sunroof. But its best feature was becoming a giant remote-controlled car, which 007 controlled from his phone.

It may seem a conservative beast, but even unarmed, it has presence; if you turn up in one, people will assume you’re big in something. Though probably not MI5. You can get Bond’s BMW for less than £1,000 but we’d spend a little more – £4,000 should get you a peach.
