007's Aston Martin is sold for $4.1m

James Bond's famous Aston Martin car, complete with gadgets including ejector seats and revolving number plates, sold at auction in London Wednesday for a lower-than-expected four million dollars.

Hopes were high that the 1964 silver Aston Martin DB5 would smash the five-million-dollar barrier — but in the end the car driven by Sean Connery when he played the fictional British spy fell short.
Veteran silver screen star Connery got behind the wheel of the car when he played Bond in the films "Goldfinger" (1964) and "Thunderball" (1965).
A spokesman for RM Auctions, which had dubbed the vehicle the most famous car in the world, said that the sale price was "still a lot of money and I don't think anyone's disappointed."
The auctioneers did not release the identity of the buyer.
