Christie's auction house, the James Bond
Aston Martin is being chased by an Alfa Romero in a scene from the
film "Quantum of Solace." The Aston Martin V12 DBS
coupe that featured in the James Bond film is the top
attraction at a charity auction marking the 50th anniversary of
the first 007 film, "Dr. No." Christie's auctioneers said
Thursday the car, a 2008 model, is expected to sell for at least
100,000 pounds ($160,000) at an invitation-only auction on Oct.
5. Proceeds will benefit Barnardo's, a British children's
charity.
