Stolen James Bond 'Goldfinger' Aston Martin DB5 is likely in the Middle East, sleuth says
Fox News
The new "James Bond Car Robbery" podcast includes claims by an art recovery expert that an Aston Martin DB5 featured in "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball" that was stolen in 1997 is currently located in the Middle East.
The silver coupe was spirited away without a trace, leading some investigators to believe it had been flown away by a cargo plane or even a small drug-running plane that quickly dropped in to pick it up. The car had been purchased at auction in 1986 for $275,000 by real estate developer Anthony Pugliese, but was insured for $4.2 million at the time of the heist, which is roughly what the other car was auctioned for in 2010. A new podcast produced by Spyscape called "The Great James Bond Car Robbery," which is narrated by "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery" star Elizabeth Hurley, has taken an in-depth look the incident and one contributor to the program has revealed new information about the car’s whereabouts today.More Related News
