James Bond Aston Martin at Midsummer Classic event

The world’s most famous car – the Aston Martin DB5 as driven by James Bond – is to make its first appearance for 40 years in the UK at the Midsummer Classic and ThunderBall events, to be held at Stoke Park Club on the 26th June.

The iconic DB5 made appearances in Goldfinger in 1964 and Thunderball in 1965 which helped establish the car as not only one of the iconic Aston Martins, but also one of the most globally revered cars of all time.

Organiser Nicholas Mee of CTR Events said, “We are very excited to be presenting this iconic Aston Martin at Stoke Park Club, itself a filming location for scenes in two James Bond movies. This will also be the first time this DB5 will have been on display with all the other James Bond Aston Martins: the DBS from Quantum of Solace, the Vanquish from Die Another Day and the V8 Vantage Volante from The Living Daylights.”

Supported by Aston Martin, the family-friendly Midsummer Classic will have the convivial atmosphere of a garden party where guests will enjoy generous hospitality and have access to the Concours d’Elegance which will also feature a collection of Aston Martins and Lagondas.

A country club and resort with an impressive mansion clubhouse and 350 acres of historic parkland, Stoke Park Club is situated near Stoke Poges in Buckinghamshire.
