Would James Bond's car be road legal?
I know I have asked questions about this quite a lot on Yahoo! Answers but at school I have been threatened by a student. He said he was going to shoot me whilst I'm driving. I suppose I could call the police but I think they might arrest me for wasting police time and they might have more important matters like criminals to arrest. I've been thinking of all kinds of solutions. One of which is to create the kind of stuff you'd see on a car driven by James Bond, such as a flamethrower or an oil slick or even guns or guided missile systems. I've seen Richard Hammond and James May modify a Range Rover in such a way in the Top Gear At The Movies DVD (I draw the line at the invisibility thing and all the heavy stuff as this would hinder performance and look stupid).
Another reason for me to ask this question is that I read in a motoring magazine that the Aston Martin DB5 driven by James Bond in Goldfinger actually had these devices because it was the 1960's and computer technology hadn't been developed enough for the purposes of film production. Nonetheless the DB5 was sold at auction for obviously a mighty high price but how would the highest bidder get home if his wheels weren't road legal just because it has ejector seats, a strange thing that pops out of the centre of the wheel and punches out the tyres of the villain's car, machine guns, effectively fireworks shooting out the front and some crazy other stuff.
How would such a vehicle get through an MOT test with that stuff? Would it affect the driver's insurance? Would the police get suspicious?
