    Screen used Lotus Esprit Turbo (copper) (it was not really a Turbo in the movie, I know) from FYEO!

    Not sure what mine would be but then I'm not a Bond collector as such - just got one or two related items. Will have to think of an answer to my own question :))

    I wouldnt say Holy Grail but things at the top of my list (clothes related)

    Any TF QoS Tie
    St Dupont Coffin Cuff Links
    TF Harrington (Had it in hand but too small)
    Y3 Harrington (offered it recently but wrong size)
    Casino Royale Planet Ocean (was going to get this but just pulled the trigger on a Submariner instead!)

    PS - anybody selling any of the above PM me!!!

    I'd say the one thing I'd love to make but will never get round to it would be the attaché case from FRWL.

    Theres just never enough time in the days. Sigh.

    Sean Connery's screen-used PPK in From Russia with Love would probably be the one bond prop i would want most

    Like BT this is one of my favourite possessions .... :007)

    The list of "items" I'd like is endless...

    But these come to mind

    Olga kurylenko
    Halle berry
    Honor blackman (1960's version obviously, though she remains stunning for her age)

    :p

    My Bond holy grails, or at least that immediately come to mind at the moment,

    *An authentic GF Bond Rolex Submariner
    *A deactivated Beretta used by the literary Bond, complete with silencer
    *A 1/43rd scale pewter miniature of Bond's Bentley "Locomotive," that came with the limited edition of "Devil May Care."

    The Aston Martin DBS Quantum Silver... Damn.

    One thought crossed my mind - does somebody here have one actually? :D Because I know the fact that people are buying them in the exact specs as used in QoS, so they must be Bond fans somehow?

    I didn't realise we could include women in the list so I have now made my decision - Eva Green :p :v

    A signed Tosh Togo autograph - very rare indeed! In fact, I have seen just 2 of these autographs in existence. Its even rarer than the Harold Sakata autograph with bowler hat and character name.

    The reason why its not valued as highly is because for that very reason - character name, hat drawing and real name sell for more though true bond collectors may pay through the roof for it as its a valuable commodity for those who don't own one.

    When I saw the opportunity to own a piece of Sakata history, I was there in a flash - I have a presentation at home with images of Sakata and a postcard signed as his wrestler name.

    I have also all six Bond autographs (the exception being Connery but I have a Connery on another shot - Connery is rare in authentic form). I also have some other autos such as Kiel, Eaton, James and Krabbe too.

    Overall, a pretty sweet collection.

    '79 Aston Martin V8 Saloon, Vantage specs underneath with Oscar India cosmetics. Cumberland grey on black of course with BBS conversion. No skis. The decision on the canvas sunroof would be a tough one.

    So many things to choose from, but at the top of my list is probably an Aston Martin DBS V12 in "Casino Ice". That, and a made-to-measure Tom Ford suit.

    In English we use the phrase "they're an item" to mean two people having a relationship...

    You'll probably cover that on tape 27 of your course old boy.... 8-)

    Of course spending a few hours with a real Englishman would save you considerable time....

    But I dont come cheap BT.... B-)
