    It's pretty sure, that it was Colin Chapman's personal car. The Turbo was not in production at the time of the shooting, so, they used a standard Esprit with a Turbo prototype bodykit.

    Rumor also says, that the white and the copper Turbo have been the same car - a white one which has been later resprayed in copper metallic.

    I think I also have heard that they had problems as it was a “dull” car – so it was difficult to have it look like a real sportscar – indicating that it was not a turbo… but hey maybe Marcus knows more about this

    p.s. Marcus nice watch movie -{

    even a standard Esprit has never been a "dull car" Their forumula was always less weight.
    The Turbo however had the great additional punch - a real performer when the Turbo came!

    Well, my holy grail is for some of you silly, but it is a picture of my daughter, in which he wrote,Me llamo Bond,James Bond,and we drew me and my wife as Mr. and Mrs. Bond.
    But one thing I love about my collection, is a photo signed by Jeremy Bullock in 2010 in japan madrid weckend, I sent it to you see it

    DB9 Volante will be mine one day, but a screen used TF suit just now would be nice. :D

    For me a Holy Grail item would be the screen used Walther PPK from The Living Daylights, or the PPK with Galco Falcon holster from Licence to Kill. Also I would gladly pay for Dalton's Tuxedo from The Living Daylights, or just about any costume Sean Connery wore on screen save for the blue robe from Goldfinger and most of his Diamonds are Forever outfits.

    My grail would be a Thunderball illustration by Robert McGinnis or Jeff Marshall signed by Sean Connery. I was hoping that Connery would sign Marshall's Thunderball prints but that didn't happen. A new McGinnis Thunderball lithograph signed by Connery would be awesome. However, since Connery is retired and I've heard always had a problem with the money side of the Bond franchise, this grail will be difficult to acquire.
