Elon Musk was Roger Moore's favourite 'entrepreneur'
They come from different generations — one, an actor, who made women go weak in the knees, the other — a revolutionary
entrepreneur. But their admiration was mutual. As actor Roger Moore, one of the most popular James Bonds, breathed his last on Tuesday in Switzerland, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk was among the first to pay tribute to Moore on Twitter.

“Particularly loved The Spy Who Loved Me,” he wrote. Incidentally, Moore, in an interview some years back had said that Musk is his favourite entrepreneur, after reports of him purchasing the iconic Lotus Esprit vehicle from The Spy Who Loved Me for £6,16,000 appeared. He intends to make its movie transformation from car to submarine a reality. Musk purchased the car at an auction in London in September 2013.
