007 Lotus Turbo Esprit up for grabs

Wheres the Martini?

Are you a James Bond fan? If your favorite Bond is Roger Moore, then you’re going to love this. Head on down to London and you just might get a shot at owning this Lotus Turbo Esprit used in the 1981 Bond flick For Your Eyes Only. It was piloted by no less than Roger Moore as Agent 007 himself.

Valuing at around 90,000-100,000 pounds, this Esprit will be up for bidding this July 18 at the Coys 2009 event in Blenheim Palace. It even includes a set of skis on the roof. The skis were put there to blend in the scenario of the film where Roger Moore pulled off some cool stunts on ice.

Actually, this Esprit had already been auctioned off in the past, selling for 250,000 US dollars. Now, it’s expected to bid for 150,000 US dollars at the most. This is a real bargain folks.

So head on down to London and get ready to strip some cash to bond with this classic. You may just get a Martini on the rocks, shaken not stirred, along with this cool Bond Esprit. Now, all this Esprit lacks is a hot Bond girl to go along for the bid.
