Advantages: Quality, well finished, solid, price

Disadvantages: Not strictly faithful to original

This is another fun little addition to the Corgi 'Bond' collection. The BMW Z3 was used in the film 'Goldeneye'. It didn't have too much of a role in all honesty (Bond was driving it for a very short while) and it's not a true Bond car (it's not laden with gadgets to help Bond escape). But it's still pretty decent.

But what about the model? Well, Corgi have a reutation to keep, and they certainly do with this model. This has a quality feel to it, and is well made. The lights on the front may not look perfect, but they house a couple of missile, which can be fired out from the car by pressing down the headrests. A nice novel idea; but not one the car actually had in the film. Which gives this the feel of being a 'toy' rather than a model. By feel, I don't mean that it feels cheap quality wise, just that it feels like it was aimed at kids to play with. And at about £14 (depending on where you buy it), it really isn't badly priced. The model feel solid, and will certainly last a long time. I just wouldn't advise letting the kids play with it and bash it around!

But on the whole, this is a neat, well made, nicely finished model. It's maybe not a must for Bond fans, as it isn't a true replica of a true Bond car. But, as a model, it's pretty good.

Summary: Sure, it's not a true Bond car, but it's a pretty neat model!
