  more importantly, even though Lotus wanted to be part of it, Andy Palmer has confirmed AM will provide Bond's next ride.

  @Getafix, do you think Aston is in danger of bankruptcy?

  Why would that be? Because of a couple of shortsellers? With a little bit of luck they'll be squeezed out soon enough.

  Nice, but as the runner up was the Toyota, I guess there's some BOnd-bias in the list ;-)

  I hate SUVs. Really do. But I do understand the profit angle. Still, ugly pieces of machinery done for inferiority complexed people, or the so called family men and women who can't have a proper roadster. Blah, I hate SUVs.

  Fully agree. allthough I must say the Alfa Stelvio does look good when you're standing next to it.

  Only if needed. It's a pretty smart concept: an electric powertrain to replace the Original combustion engine when needed. But it can be converted back to the Original engine too. At least all the classics can stay on the road for the foreseable future.
  
  Always love the zagatos, but this one, I don't know.

  Q: Damn it, 007! Not again! You just had to go for the old lady with the machine gun, didn't you?

  Is that a still from the PTS of Bond 25?

  I'd be willing to bet Bond will wreck at least one Aston Martin. Craig's 4 for 4 I believe.

  Wouldn't it be great to have a scene where Craig pulls the Aston into Q's garage, just got it detailed, full tank of gas, and Q goes "that's a first for you I believe, 007."

  I don't see a long term future for Aston outside one of the big manufacturers. Ford seemed like a good fit tbh. That's when they had their renaissance in terms of the design and general perception of the brand.
  
  I could see them also perhaps fitting into BMW alongside Rolls Royce. 2 premium but complementary brands. Or as part of Daimler who have struggled to make an impact in the super premium market.
  
  As a stand alone marque their days are always going to be numbered.

  Excellent. Just the thing for unwinding after a rough day at kindergarten.
