Xenia Onatopp

questions. How did Bond know that Xenia Onatopp is a vallain. Xenia races
with Bond. Later Bond meets her again in the casino in Monte Carlo. After
that Xenia goes out with an Admiral. And Bond asks Moneypenny about the
information about Xenia Onatopp. Does Bond everything he meets ask some
information to Moneypenny?
And did Boris Grishenko know that Xenia and Ourumov will come, because he
goes exactly the moment outside while Xenia and Ourumov just come with the
Tiger.

He probably recognized her from a file photograph.

The license plate on her Ferarri was counterfeit (illegal; bogus;
fake). Bond's "sixth sense" kicked in when he saw Xenia with the
Admiral.

Yes, Boris knew when to go outside. He was in on the plan from the
beginning.

listen to their conversation in the casino?
Also as pointed out in the casino scene it is very unusual to see a 'Soviet'
driving around Europe in such an expensive car.
Bond as an MI6 agent would have regular assignments concerning Russian Mafia
and was just following up his suspicions in doing a check on ID with base.
Hopefully this clears up the confusion!

huh? I thought Xenia was Georgian myself.

She was a former pilot with the Ruskies' air force, they probably had a file on
her already.

He was in on it, remember? He knew they were coming, and they probably told
him to go outside when they came to avoid being killed.

Naw... then she'd have a name like Schrvvedzardandzilveskavse
Or Bubba. Depending on the kind of Georgian.

Of course they did! Why else did Bond get the order to have "no
contact"? They know his sort of "contact", but I wonder if they knew
how dangerous it would have been for him? I think not. Bond was rather
surprised, when he at least got his "contact" in the bath<g>.

How is this ascertained? Merely because the licence plate begins with
the wrong letter? Hasn't Bond heard of personalised plates?

Perhaps they're not usual in Monaco?
In Germany for example the code always starts with the city the plate
is licensed in. With a bit luck you can get the next two letters and
the numbers like you want them. Really personalized plates do not
exist. Just the Bundeswehr vehicle plates always begin with a Y.

Because Bond gets paid to know these matters. A hot chick leaving with an old
broken down love starved admiral is suspicious enough, after all what would she
see in him?

Didn't UK resident Simon Templar have a personalized plate in 1961?

First, Monaco is not France.
And, in France, plates are like XXXX AA YY where :
XXXX is a 3 or 4-digit numer (depending on the length of the following
item)
AA is a 2 or 3-letter thing (if AA is 2-letter then XXXX is 4-digit)
YY stands for the number of the department the car is licensed in. You
have no influence on it.
XXXX AA is the real license number. For example, the "number" following
9999 ST is 1 SU. You get the idea. When, for a given dept, we reach 9999
ZZ, then it's 1 AAA. And at 999 AAA, then it's 1 AAB, etc... easy, no ?
With this system, it's hard to get a personalized plate number. You have
to wait for your favourite 2 or 3-letter combination to arrive (if it's
ZEN, then you'd better ride a bicycle...). But we hear it's rather easy
to negotiate a given number. And it's even said that cops refrain from
putting fines on "special" numbers like 100, 500 or 1000, because they
usually belong to people influent enough to get the number they want.
Then again, it could be a rumor...

Not as far as I know. French license plates, in general, follow the same
pattern: up to four digits, two letters, and then the number of teh departement
the car is registered in (example: 5468 PQ 75). There are exceptions, of course
(some letters are used for special purposes, like WW, which means that the car
is a brand new one, waiting for its definitive license number), but I've never
heard of personalized plates.

He didn't leave in the helicopter. As long as he was away from anything
with an electric circuit, the EMP would have _no_ effect.

Didn't Bond spot the car because the registration
was too *new* for the model of the car?
Although we can have personalised plates here in
the UK, you cannot transfer a newer registration
than the year of manufacture of the car.
