Bond frequently introduces himself as "Bond, James Bond." He used this introduction while playing Chemin de Fer with Sylvia Trench and to later interrupt Jill Masterson while she was helping Auric Goldfinger cheat at cards. (Dr. No, Goldfinger) However, as he attempted to introduce himself to Tilly Masterson, Bond was interrupted by her before he could complete his name. (Goldfinger) Fiona Volpe referred to him as "Mr. Bond, James Bond" while talking to him on one of his later missions. (Thunderball) Bond again introduced himself as "Bond, James Bond" when he first met Countessa Teresa di Vicenzo, as well as during a phone call with her father, Marc Ange Draco, and when he later first met Marie.

James Bond would be lost without them -- those madcap gadgets merging two technologies that help him beat the bad guys and save the planet. The underwater watch with a built-in Geiger counter, for example; or the car that doubles as a submarine; or the exploding bagpipes and missile-launching wheelchair.

Bond later used his introduction when first meeting enemies Xenia Onatopp and Elliot Carver. (GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies) He ... gave his trademark introduction to Elektra King, who would only later become his enemy, and to Christmas Jones, although, in the latter example, Bond's usual pause between his last name and full name was longer than normal, due to the erratic motion of a lift he and Christmas Jones were traveling on. (The World Is Not Enough) Finally, he also introduced himself to Gustav Graves during their first meeting.

While Bond drives sleek sports cars (including his signature Aston Martin), Bourne prefers to borrow (read: steal and total) whatever vehicle is handy. This means piloting a beat-up Mini down stairs in Paris, plowing through Moscow in a taxi, engaging in a moped chase in Tangiers and hijacking a cop car in NYC.
