Bentley Parteners With Penguin to Design New Bond Book

By John Coyle

In the movies, James Bond has always been associated with marques like Aston Martin and Lotus, but in Ian Fleming’s novels, 007 favored Bentleys. So to celebrate the release of Devil May Care, the latest addition to the James Bond canon, Bentley has partnered with Penguin to release a special edition. The $1500 tome will be finished with the same leather used for Bentley interiors, printed in the style of ’60s owner’s manuals and delivered with a 1:43 scale replica of the R Type Bond drives in the book. In a cool twist, the book will be set during the Cold War, which in my opinion, is the best period for a Bond adventure. More details over at Penguin Books.
