    Well, he's always said as far back as Casino Royale how he would love to own one. I'm sure he's over the moon.

    A darker red may have been nicer, if it was available. It stands out, not sure whether that was the plan or not.

    A red Aston Martin is really awful. If it were even a Dark Green, Dark Blue, White, or Black it would be better.

    It looks cool, and he's a Liverpool fan

    Red?
    What cop won't be happy to say he pulled over James Bond for speeding. I'd be willing to bet he didn't pay full price for it.

    ^^ Me too if he bought it himself, but I suspect it was a present.

    maybe a present from EON. I heard SF did pretty well.

    Nice set of wheels, although I would have opted for a different colour.

    If I could get one at all, I'd get gunmetal
    (But preferably id get Dalton's car from TLD. That one is my fav)

    He had been over at Aston Martin a couple of days ago and I suppose, its neither bought nor a present - its something he will drive for a while, nothing more. Saying, he doesn't OWN the thing, I think, they just let him drive it for no fee as the best advertising they can get and he has fun doing it. I doubt, he would have chosen red himself.

    I saw a Z8 once close by---nice license plate. DBL07Z8. A silver Z8, of course.

    That makes most sense, actually. :)

    Same here. And the '69 DBS, if i'm allowed to be greedy. ;)


    Though i'm surprised he hasn't had one free. Wasn't Brosnan given one of the BMW's for free?

    So he's now got an Aston. I would if he goes into character when he's driving it, humming the Bond theme as he goes?

    I want to see dan be a star in a reasonably priced car, after his bond tenure thou. Imagine the headlines if he failed to top the lap time board %-( ...

    Ugh. Red.

    Still a better car than I'll ever own though.

    @MajorDSmythe, I'm pretty sure they gave Brosnan a DB9 for free.

    I was actually wondering something else. Last year he gave the Mrs a jag for her birthday, and her birthday was Thursday.
    Beautiful car, regardless of the colour.
