The British brand announced that the DB10, which is the star of the 24th Bond film, Spectre", is going to be auctioned on February 18th at Christie's in London. The proceeds are going to be donated to Medecins Sans Frontieres. This is going to be the only Aston Martin DB10 available for private ownership. "Spectre - The Auction" is also meant to mark the launch of the new 007 movie on Digital HD, Blu-ray and DVD.
