The ultrasuede ruins it for me. If it is Bond it needs high quality leather.

Cool car, but I’m not seeing anything here that reminds me of James Bond. All I see is a slender black stripe that serves as a callback to any old first-gen Esprit. Was the Tartan pattern or the wood knob specific to the movie car?

The movie car and the prototypes had it I think, not sure about the production S1. The name stickers are inspired by the Esprit as well, allegedly. TwinCharged caught the number plate as well, but of course that isn’t something you can choose if you’d buy one.
Overall, I think it’s a missed opportunity, but I do like the little touches.
