    Aston Martin and James Bond

    Sep 26, 2008 9:45 AM

    If Ford supplies the cars for the James Bond films and Aston Martin is no longer part of Ford, what cars will he be driving in the next film after Quantam of Solace??

    Supposedly it was a three film deal, which ends with Quantum of Solace. But Ford Let them use Aston Martin for Quantum of Solace.

    That aside, the only likely replacement is Lamborghini. But they aren't British, so there we go.

    Jaguar are too cheap, really, and Bentley too soft. Rolls-royces are for Goldfinger, and Lotus aren't glamorous enough.

    Morgan?

    EDIT: Associated with ford? Roush? Saleen?

    With modern day political correctness, the Bond film after the Quantum of Solace, will feature James as a stay at home dad, drinking smoothies and driving a Telsa.

    Haha! Morgan, very discreet for tailing people "I say Goldfinger, there appears to be someone following us in a wooden car!"

     How about a Black Noble with missile launchers? - now that would be very sweet.

    Isn't it Audi's turn? even funnier - "Bimbo: James! we only have 30 seconds to reach & defuse the atomic bomb in Whitehall - Bond: I know! I can't find #&*%£*% space big enough to park this stuffing Q7!!!"

    What about Maserati? I think perhaps Fiat should take over the franchise then we'd have Fiat 500 abarths, Ferraris and Maseratis

    Fiat 500 would be a formidable weapon against the Ferrraris...

    Everyone knows Ferraris can't get over speed humps!

    (and thats the best use for Fiat 500's)

    I think he'd look cool in a Dodge Caliber.

    According to this months Octane, which has a feature on Bond cars, Aston Martin has a 10 year deal with the franchise.

    Will still capture our imagination.

    What a moronic thread. He'll be driving a Rover SD1.
