The folks behind the James Bond franchise may have picked a god-awful name for the latest film, but they more than make up for it with their choice of automobiles.
The brand new Quantum of Solace trailer may feature Olga Kurylenko behind the wheel of a naff golden Ford Ka - hopefully it won’t get a lengthy appearance like the Ford Mondeo did in Casino Royale - but it also gives us a glimpse at the gorgeous Aston Martin DBS that Danny Craig became acquainted with last time round.
Frankly, I’m so excited about this film that I could shit a squirrel - roll on October 31st!
Grid Crasher extra: The bond stuntmen wrote off an Aston martin in spectacular style back in April - check out footage of the recovered wreck after the jump…
Here’s a promotion shot for the new 007 movie, Quantum of Solace, showing Bond girl Olga Kurylenko behind the wheel of a golden Ford Ka. Ford won’t say if Bond himself will drive the Ka in the upcoming film, but it’s a long way from the sexy supercars of Bonds gone by.
Daniel Craig drove a humdrum Ford Focus in Casino Royale. That was the second instalment of a three-movie sponsorship deal between Ford and the Bond producers that began with the woeful Die Another Day in 2002 - remember the “invisible” Aston Martin (back when Ford owned Aston)?
The Focus was bad enough, but god we hope Bond doesn’t end up driving the Ka. It’s just wrong - we could hardly think of a less appropriate car for an uber-cool secret agent. What next, Ernst Stavro Blofeld on a Segway? M on a moped?
