British auction house, Christie’s, is honoring the 60th anniversary of the Bond movie franchise with a special 007-themed auction.
Jaguar, Aston Martin, Land Rover, and Range Rover cars that starred in No Time To Die blockbuster are among the two-part charity sale scheduled for September 2022.
One of the more expensive items is a Land Rover Defender which was used for an all-terrain chase sequence.
As the vehicle is a pre-production build and modified for stunts, it cannot be registered. Its estimated selling price is between $AU515,000 and $AU860,000.
A Jaguar XF which starred in the pre-credit sequence has an estimated starting price of $AU85,000, while a Range Rover Sport SVR which was involved in a chase scene is expected to go under the hammer for between $US143,000 and $ US214,000.
Other cars up for auction include an Aston Martin DB5 replica which contains damage from the opening chase scene. Bidding for that model is expected to start from an eye-watering $AU2.5 million, while a V8 Aston Martin Vantage is anticipated to sell for about $AU1.2million.
A total of 25 vehicles are being auctioned during an invitation-only event on September 28, 2022. Online bidding commences on September 15, 2022. All proceeds from the 007-themed auction will be going to charity, the firm said.
