This presentation by UK car dealers Evans Halshaw takes us on a ride through the history of Bond cars. Classics include the open-top Sunbeam Alpine seen in Dr. No, the submersible Esprit Series 1 in The Spy Who Loved Me, and the comically unconventional Citroen 2CV. The quintessential Aston Martin makes no less than eight appearances, including a vintage silver-birch DB5 in the upcoming Bond film, Skyfall.
Have a look at some the wonderfully minimalist illustrations of the Bond vehicles after the jump.
Scroll through the full list in the interactive presentation, BOND: Licence to Drive.

Saw this on the telegraph earlier! Check out the click and drag feature for the DBS on the actual graphic, very cool!
I only noticed that now, thanks for heads-up Mike!
