This, of course is the iconic Aston Martin DB5 from the James Bond movie, "Goldfinger." It is regarded by many as the best of the James Bond movies.
Tonia Mallet played "Tilly Masterson," the sister of the girl that was killed by suffocation when covered in gold paint. She is discovered by Bond as being on the revenge trail.
Mallet has passed away at 77.
Mallet, who is the cousin of Dame Helen Mirren, got into acting as a model. She became a Bond girl after one of her pictures was sent to Cubby Broccoli.
What's interesting is that even though the film was HUGE, Mallet never did another film and spent the rest of her life out of the spotlight.
Condolences to her family.
