I couldn't find a Matchbox James Bond car. You sure it wasn't a Corgi?
Matchbox never made a model of the James Bond Aston. In 1958 they released a replica of an earlier version, the DB 2/4, like the one Lesney Smith, a co-founder of Lesney once owned.

Nice! Thanks.

During the 60s, my mom used to buy me one Matchbox car a week. Couldn’t wait for that day. Had a great collection at one time. Years later, figuring I was grown and didn’t need or want them anymore, threw them in the garbage!

I would have loved to still have that collection, solely for the memories. I doubt I would ever have sold them.
