It is with the greatest delight that we present the Bentley Bond Special Series edition of Devil May Care. The ultimate in luxury editions - this beautifully crafted book represents a unique alliance between three of Britain's most iconic brands: James Bond, Bentley Motors and Penguin Books.

Cars and james bond have always had a special association - our favourite secret agent is suitably famed for his fast cars and even faster driving. Whether it's in pursuit of an arch-nemesis or a beautiful woman, Bond is always at home behind the wheel of a luxury sports car. Contrary to popular belief however, Bond's preference has historically been firmly with Bentley Motors.
In the course of the fourteen original Bond novels, Fleming wrote of Bond owning three Bentleys - the last of which was a Bentley R Type, which Bond
lovingly referred to as 'the locomotive'. These were Bond's personal cars - the cars that Fleming thought most epitomized the discernment and style of his hero. In Devil May Care, written by Sebastian Faulks to celebrate the centenary of Ian Fleming's birth, it is fitting that Bond is found once again in the driving seat of his favourite motor - the Bentley.

To mark this momentous occasion, Penguin approached the famous Crewe firm to produce a Bentley edition of the book. This beautifully crafted luxury edition is the result, bringing together the design and materials that embody the quality and craftsmanship of Bentley Motors. Only 300 copies of the Special Series edition will be produced worldwide, costing £750 or $1500 each.

UK editions now SOLD OUT.
