The travelling ‘Bond in Motion’ exhibition, which features original items from the sets of James Bond movies going all the way back to the 1960s, has come to Prague from Brussels, where it was a huge success, receiving over 100,000 visitors. Displaying 75 means of transport driven, flown or ridden by Bond in the series, many of the exhibits bear the authentic marks and traces of the stunts they featured in during filming.

Few things say ‘James Bond’ more than the iconic modes of transportation he used to get around in the movies, and this exhibition has them all: cars, motorcycles, boats, planes, helicopters – even the cello case that Timothy Dalton used as a sleigh in the legendary scene with Maryam d’Abo in the 1987 movie The Living Daylights.

Meg Simmonds, Archive Director at Eon Productions Ltd, the company that has produced all 25 official Bond films, says that for her, the Bond cars encapsulate many of the qualities that have made the franchise successful.
