Bond bike raises £138k for a Shropshire hospice

The motorbike ridden by Daniel Craig in the latest James Bond film has been auctioned for £138,600 in support of Severn Hospice

The Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE which appeared in the latest James Bond film, No Time to Die, was sold at auction on Wednesday.

The stunt bike appeared in a pre-credit chase scene through the streets of Matera in Italy and was modified to handle action sequences such as being ridden down a flight of stairs.

At £138,600 the bike went for more than four times its guide price.

James Bond star Daniel Craig chose Severn Hospice as the full beneficiary. The hospice has sites in Telford and Shrewsbury where they give care to people in the local community living with incurable illnesses.

The sale of the bike was part of a wider series of auctions, which were celebrating 60 years of Bond and raised over £6.1 million for charities.
