This will be Daniel Craig's final outing as 007 in "No Time To Die," the 25th film in the James Bond series. The movie will feature top-notch vehicle chases and an apparition by a specific gadget-heavy Aston Martin DB5.

To celebrate the delayed release of "No Time To Die," EON Productions, the company behind the James Bond films, has teamed up with The Little Car Company to produce a miniature copy of the most iconic cinematic car ever, complete with a functional smoke screen and machine guns were hidden below the headlamps.

Blue-chip automakers like Bugatti and Ferrari have rushed to The Little Car Company to have their most iconic vehicles recreated as fully-driveable but little EVs. Just 125 Aston Martin DB5 James Bond edition cars will come with the set of Q-Branch gadgets designed by Oscar-winning special effects supervisor Chris Corbould, who has ended up working on 15 Bond films since the early 1980s.

When the switches in the hidden panel in the passenger door are activated, the gadgets, along with the digital update of the original 007 car's rotating number plates and a smokescreen, are turned on, the car can emit a ½ hour's of getaway haze through the fake back exhaust first before the tank needs to be resupplied.

Furthermore, there's an emergency donut mode, as demonstrated by a full-size DB5 in the movie's trailer. It's basically a drag-racer-style line lock that tightens up the front brakes so you can do burnouts or smoky rings with the aid of a limited-slip differential and a 16 kW engine that's almost twice as strong as the one in the top-spec non-007 model.

Finally, lowering the front headlights reveals a pair of Gatling weapons. Of obviously, they aren't real guns, but LCC claims they have 'imitation barrel blasts and flashes' to complete the illusion. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear like Q ever got around to installing an ejector seat to get away from his bothersome nephew.

The Aston Martin Owner's Club and The Little Car Club, the latter of which offers entry to exclusive events at world-renowned racetracks, are both immediately included for purchasers. LCC DB5 is technically a Volante, but the scale model is meant to be appreciated by both children and adults, and installing a roof that retained adult-friendly headspace would have given it the dimensions of a Little Tykes Cozy Coupe.

Depending on the engine specs, LCC's ordinary DB5 costs anywhere from $48,600 to $62,500. Aston Martin DB5 James Bond edition, on the other hand, goes for an eye-popping $125,000.
