Sean Connery's BMW 635 CSI for sale on eBay
It's not the car you'd expect to see James Bond rolling in, but this beautiful alpine white BMW 635 CSI was once the pride and joy of Sean Connery, arguably the best Bond ever.
The car is now up for sale on eBay in the UK and, according to the seller's description, the Scottish actor was the only owner. The car was sourced from Marbella in Spain and has only covered 27,000 miles while it was registered. In 1998 it was picked up by a Lancashire BMW dealer in the UK where it has been sitting, pampered in a showroom ever since.
Thanks to Tony for the tip!

P.S. Apparently there is at least a 1k markup for the pleasure of owning a car once driving by 007...this one has a buy it now of 3,5k

Actually, that one you linked to has about 51k more miles on it, and I would hope a cool car driven by a former 007 would have at least that much markup!

Seems he was not well paid as an actor.
And I don't want to see Seans' Penis. Urgh.

We all remember Brosnan era that James Bond drove 3 BMWs & motorcycle. I didn't know Sean Connery drove a BMW in real life. Has he though of getting the new version? What the car hes driving now?
