Bond, James Bond, got his new car today. At a special event at Pinewood Studios in London, Bond director Sam Mendes announced that the new Bond film will be called Spectre and that in it, 007 will be driving the new Aston Martin DB10.
The new Aston Martin DB10 appears to be a a concept car that could point the way to the styling of the forthcoming replacement for Aston Martin's popular V8 Vantage. The DB10 concept has been specifically designed for the Spectre Bond film and will be limited to just 10 examples.
Rumours are rife online that Bond will also drive a Fiat 500 in the new film, firing it through the city streets in an epic set-piece chase sequence. However, we now know that the cute little Fiat is not the Bond car proper in the new movie.
007 has been known to park his Brioni-suited behind in some weird and wonderful cars during his on-screen outings, but he usually has something altogether classier on standby - often with rocket launchers behind the headlamps. The new DB10 would certainly seem to fit the bill and we can't wait to see it in action.
