Shrewsbury shoppers spot classic Bond car in town
A replica of James Bond's famous Aston Martin DB5 drew admiring glances from shoppers in Shrewsbury over the weekend – but not all for the right reasons.

The car, bearing the number plate JB 007, was in The Square on Saturday.
It was similar to the one driven by the super spy in the 1964 film Goldfinger – but not all got the reference.
Paul Ensor, marketing manager for insurance firm A-Plan, which brought the car to the town to mark the launch of a new branch there, said not everyone had understood the relevance of JB on the number plate.
"One young lad came up to me and said it was fantastic that we had managed to get Justin Bieber's car in Shrewsbury," he said.
