    Not sure if this means it will be in the new film, but what do we think of the car in general?
    I'm not too keen on the colour, actually...

    I'm sure it comes in other colours

    Why are so many Astons going without the lower jaw recently? Ugh.

    To be honest, I think the 1969 Aston Martin is much prettier.

    If I'd had a 6 million quid in my old sock I'd definately buy this one. Wouldn't care that much about the new car, but the DB4 is just automotive heaven to me.

    Today, I got a big surprise while coming back home after work. While I was walking from my workplace to the bus station, I saw a silver greay DB9 parked on my way. Of course, I did a tour of the car before speeding to reach my bus before it went away. Don't know who owns it (probably the boss of one of the businesses in this industrial zone), but whoever he/she is, he/she has great taste.

    That's very cool. I parked my car for some time in a different neighbourhoud as we were moving and I have a permit for the outskirts, it was the closest I could park to home, and there was this beautiful Aston Martin Virage parked there (2011 model). I know it as a superfluous model, trying to fill a non-existent gap between the DB9 and DBS at the time, but boy do I love the looks of that car!

    It could be great if 007 drove it Bond 25 or Daniel Craig buy this Aston Martin off screen like he does. I leave that to you to comment

    Did you know that the DB5 Aston Martin provided for GOLDFINGER was the first DB5 ever made? Find out more about the iconic car at 007 x SPYSCAPE: DRIVEN, the 007 exhibition in New York City.

    No, it's designed by DC though.

    I don't like the wheels.

    I don’t care for the wheels either, and I’m not entirely fond of the bigger grill. I always prefer the grills on Volantes and to a lesser extent, the Vantage.

    Of course, then there’s my favorite 007 car...

    It does it all perfectly. So happy it’s returning.

    You and me both. The classic DBS is the most beautiful Aston, but I love the more aggressive lines of the V8 Vantage as well. Then there's the classic Lagonda. My 3 favourite Astons, Bond or not.

    I’ve always been interested by that particular car in that photo: some guy built it as a replica of the Living Daylights one for himself (to go with his replica of the convertible version he already had!) and actually bought the original numberplate from the film car to go on it- that’s dedication! :)
    He got the wheels wrong, but they do look great so I guess that’s why! :)

    Bizarre: I have no idea either. It seems to be from Goldfinger as it has the box around the numberplate, but other than that I can’t think. I can’t quite make out if it has the side repeaters?
    Is it even silver in those photos? Looks like it might still be red.

    A shame that there's only one (to my knowledge) picture of the actual V8 Volante used in TLD:

    Well, there's quite a few pics of it in the film! :)
    It'd be interesting to know what happened to it, though. I don't believe Eon ever owned it, did they? Famously it was Victor Gauntlett's own, but I don't know where it went after that.
