Had this model for years and only just discovered if you press the headrests the lights open up to rocket launchers!
(Black nails for Halloween before anyone asks!)
 
I went the other way and spent nearly £200 on a limited edition DB5, and it did nothing at all - no lift-up rear shield, no ejector seat, no machine guns, etc.

Sent it back and demanded a refund as I could have bought a (admittedly smaller) genuine, functional, vintage Corgi one for a bit more.

sorry but they just remind me of something else :titshake:
 
Carol - that's more than they did in the film!!

Q: "Now, this I particularly like - behind the headlights: Stinger missiles!"

Then nothing happens with the damn car in the film!!!!

On a side note, spent the entire day yesterday with colleagues telling me how TopGear said the Z4 was the worst ever Bond car and generally rubbish anyway... ...wish people would learn the difference between Z3 and Z4! FFS!!!! :headbang:
 
A Z3 was indeed one of the low points though.

The Z8 and the 7 series was much more "special" at least rather than a lowly Z3.

That's the one I could have bought instead of the 'limited edition' rip-off version I actually bought and then returned.

This is what I expected, with all working parts (doors, roof, shield, guns, etc.):

This is (more or less) what I got, with 'lines' where the doors/bonnet/roof opened:

I had one too, all small boys in the UK had one, it was law.....

and who's calling Z3's lowly.??? Why I aught to smack you upside the head for comments like that..... :lol:

I've had two of them and they are wonderful cars for ratting around the twisty's and other such places.... you actually have to drive them, maybe that's why 007 couldn't handle it, :rofl:

Pardon my ignorance,but what is that??
 
Blists Hill is a working Victorian town / museum with shops, school, houses, canal, iron foundry, pub etc and for Halloween they turn it into 'Bliss Hell'. I'll stick some pics on, I sh*t my pants a number of times the other night!
They had kids from college who were studying drama doing stuff around the place. Eeeek!
