i saw that on friday, another nail goes into the coffin . . .

Who cares? I'm waiting to see the movie before I slate it. Thats the usual method is it not?

Repost tastic

Wasn't slating, personally think it might be pretty good going back to basics, thought Daniel Craig was really good in Layercake actually. Like I said it's a good low profile car
Thought people might be interested is all with the other long threads about the film.

James Bond in a Mondeo maybe its an example of prudent defence expenditure.

Actually, if you think about it the Mondeo does make Bond truer to life. A couple of times I've seen Q cars round Vauxhall way (near MI6 HQ), and they do tend to drive mundane looking cars, albeit with significant modifications under the skin. I've never seen a Vectra 1.8, sans hub caps, handle quite like it!

you have seen them too .... its always the absence of hub caps that implies that the car is probably Q Branch tuned ...

they have ruined the while idea behind james bond by selling themselves allowing to bond to drive a mondeo. it was greed from the film makers if they werent paid 15 million would they still have used another car in the film doubt it

[marc24935]

marketing what better than james bond driving a mondeo oops the film will flop cos got a crap actor who does not look like james bond has to drive an automatic car and had to wear lifejacket up thames not very secret agent is it!

[Polarbert]

That pussy wants to get his arse into gear and learn how to drive a manual. FFS!

[Andy Mac]

Craig looks more like Bond that Flemming originally wanted. Looks like you've never read a Bond book!

[moose1978]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Bond in a friggin Mondeo!! Every knows that normal undercover guys would not drive a AM V8 or DB9 as they are too obvious but this is the friggin movies! We all want to see Bond fly around in his AM - well at least I do!

[marc24935]

havent no but the bond film wont be any good cos they have picked the wrong actor not better than brosnan so why change and i cant see him doing many films

I think you're the only one Andy

[marc24935]

james bond also goes into tesco,s for some petrol another disgrace to the film

[boots_n_braces]

OMG its not about being realistic, bond movies are bond movies! FFS a mondeo!! Put him in a proper car! and we dont need to see him pull up to tescos to fil up for petrol, HE DOESNT USE PETROL! the same as his gun never run out of ammo and he never misses a bit oversteer even when on ice!

This is the final turning point the world has gone COMPLETELY mad!

[paulie-mafia]

Next thing we know he'll be pulling on a jimmy hat (sponsored by Durex), before he slips the new Bond girl a length!

[marc24935]

he actually goes inside and buys a twix and a bottle of coke shaken not stirred and pays for the petrol

I'd heard the new Mr Bond had trouble driving the manual DB5.....although I thought the new DBS was his set of wheels. If that's the case, the touchtronic gearbox shouldn't pose a problem.....unless the DBS is AMV8 based, with the manual box?
