5. Mercury Cougar — In Her Majesty’s Secret Service, 1969
When Bond was on the run, and there were no Aston Martins around, he had to drive a Mercury Cougar, which turned out to be a tricky but very stylish car. He showed some amazing tricks on the ice track.
6. Ford Mustang — Diamonds Are Forever, 1971
Sean Connery returned to the role of 007, and the box office numbers flew sky-high! This was largely due to one of the most exciting pursuits in the history of the franchise. Ford provided the filmmakers with an unlimited number of vehicles in return for the Mustang ad. It’s a shame that almost all of them were destroyed.
7. AMC Hornet — The Man With The Golden Gun, 1974
Roger Moore’s agent 007 blatantly steals an AMC Hornet in The Man with the Golden Pistol and drives it out of the car dealership right through the window. Despite the lack of the usual bells and whistles, Bond managed to make a sick 360 on this car and jump across the collapsed bridge.
8. Lotus Esprit — The Spy Who Loved Me, 1977
Lotus Esprit has to be one of Bond’s fanciest cars he’s ever driven. It was zooming on land, in the air, and even underwater! Yes, this baby could be easily turned into a submarine.
