    In what could be one of the most awaited auctions in a long time, a 1962 AC Aceca, once owned by James Bond creator Ian Fleming, is expected to fetch 130,000 pounds at an auction.

    The car, one of the only six on the planet, is being sold by Bonhams at its Goodwood Revival sale in West Sussex.

    "The value comes really from its rarity, but it's nice to hang a famous name to it," The Daily Express quoted Tim Schofield, of Bonhams, as saying.

    Although the car is no bat mobile and has no secret gadgets whatsoever, it does have a radio and seat belts, something quite rare for that era. (ANI)
