In these days of ubiquitous surveillance, could this be a way to fly under the radar?
Rather like James Bond’s Aston Martin DB5, which made its debut in the 1964 film, Goldfinger. You will remember that in order to give the DB5 a touch of anonymity, it had rotating number plates with UK, French and Swiss registration numbers. Having local plates attracted less attention and could throw the enemy off the scent. We’re not sure that would work today as the ANPR cameras would be flagging up alerts in all three countries!
Anyway, this little ID kit contains your passport photo, but there is an overlay that is controlled by rotating the wheel that appears at the top of the device. Different overlays give you glasses, different hair styles etc. Four different looks.
For an international man of mystery like Tim, this could be just the job to help him throw off pursuit!
