Official Unboxing Airfix | Bond Bug (A02413V)

The idea of a Bond Bug was to take the rather staid reputation of the three-wheeled vehicles and give them a fun, sporty makeover. It proved to be a breath of fresh air with its futuristic appearance, sadly didn’t translate well with sale performance and had a relatively short production run.

The Bond Bug proved to be a motoring breath of fresh air with its futuristic, almost space-aged, wedge shaped appearance and certainly grabbed the attention of anyone who saw one. Marketed directly at a younger audience, the Bond Bug was described as 'The fun car that does a serious job' and with its striking tangerine finish with black detailing, it was certainly very different to anything else on Britain's roads.
Unfortunately, despite the fact that the Bond Bug was always viewed with great affection, sales success did not follow and after a relatively short production run, the last Bug left its Tamworth factory in May 1974. Since that date, the three wheeler which was available in any colour as long as it was tangerine has become something of a motoring classic and restored examples are now highly prized.

What these video's need is some narration giving a history of the kit and some real life history (i.e for for military models service history etc.)

[@SeasideWitcher]

Agreed

[@IvorMektin1701]

Read the description

[@donaldkroth2579]

I agree with the previous comment. We do need some narration on these kits. History briefs on historical military kits, etc.
I never even heard of the Bond Bug. I don't remember seeing it in any of the movies?

[@Stu293]

Seems a little odd that you have released an unboxing video of a kit that can't be found for sale in the Airfix shop.
