I've just watched this again on TV and I also wondered if it was the same car as Goldfinger's Rolls Royce as the black and yellow coachwork is similar
. However on close inspection of photos of Goldfinger's car there are differences between them. For instance the RR badge on the radiator grill is red in The Devil Rides out and Black on Goldfinger's. There are also differences between the side mirrors and the headlights on Goldfinger's have horns mounted underneath.

The one in Goldfinger is a Bentley. The one in TDRO is a Rolls Royce:

I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me.

No, the Bentley referred to in your first link is the grey car in the top left hand corner of the picture. Goldfinger had a 1937 Rolls Royce Phantom III.

Oops, sorry about that. You're right.

Here's the link for the Goldfinger yellow rolls on the IMCDB website:

That's okay, thanks for the new link.

No worries.

I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me.
