Ermmm...that's not an AM...its from David Brown Automotive...I like it -{

Only my taste but, the grill reminds me of a Maserati.

Flighty

I see that and you can tell there is a jag trying to get out but on the whole a refreshing look at an awesome Bond car.

I kind of like it but it's not an Aston and putting Bond in it would seem like they were trying a bit too hard and missing by a mile.

Mr Mallory

I think it's a beautifly car, but too retro for Bond.

Think I'd have one

After reading Solo and picturing Bond in the Jenson FF mark 1, I love the Retro look and can't wait to see bond flying around in it!! Especially if they convince Christopher Plummer to team up with Craig again as his nemesis let's hope they get Min-Sik Choi as his hench man (devil may care) and 24 will be complete!!

In addition to the new Aston in the next film, why not also feature a retro 1969 DBS?
After all, the DB5 was destroyed in SF...and the "new" Bond in 1969 drove the Olive DBS...so, why not?
Would do wonders for the model, and would be a great bit of fun to see that car again in a film.
Sniper rifle in the glove box, and trilby laying on the console...

Hold off on the sixties DBS for a while. It's one I want, and I could do without a popular resurgence for a year or two...

Jayski

No question any Aston Bond has or will ever have will suit him perfectly, but I wait patiently for his return to a Bentley.

thesecretagent

Would be nice. Continental would be the best bet, but it's old and popular. Bentley need a reworked new generation model.

It's a pitty they don'tmake a lighter sports car, for a younger driver.

Personally I think Bond 24 should feature a greener Bond (No Dalton quips please Bondtots) so he should be behind the wheel of an Aston Martin Vanq' no Vant'.....CYGNET


"Q, I've just driven the DBS into a tank...and lost!"...easier to park now

hard to resist.....
Remember that Asp9mm shares my modest opinion re. Dalton and the misty eyes

Thunderpussy

Number 24 will probably be on to say DC is too small for that car. )

That would not be an issue. The Q Branch variant Cygnet07 has a quick release floor panel which serves two purposes: One, the taller agent can fit in the cabin by having his ass drag along the road which also acts as an additional hot air brake and Two, Le Chiffre can slip under the floor pan for a spot of knotted rope on 00-ball action

Thunderpussy

) and you could get extra speed " Flintstone " style

If they didn't cost several arms and legs, it would be so tempting to buy a Cygnet just so that you'd be able to rightfully wear and carry all that great Aston Martin clobber without feeling like a complete fraud! You could sport your natty AM baseball cap and when someone says "Do you have an Aston?" you could honestly reply "Actually, I do" and then hurry away before they ask you which one.

Hopefully they may come down in price :-)

Couple of years old Cygnet (now discontinued by AML) roughly 20-25k, 2006 DB9 roughly 28-30k....difficult innit?, however Cygnet UK road tax 30 Quid, DB9 UK road tax 280 Quid...hmmmmm
