Im glad to see bond back where he belongs behind the wheel of an Aston Martin. Has anyone seen Die Another Day yet? amazing stunts with both the Jag and the Aston on that frozen lake but 4wd and a V8 in a Vanquish must have sounded like a neibour cutting the grass.
Cant wait to experience what they make of the Vanquish on the new Bond Game"Nightfire" and im going to try GT3 on the PS2 in a few weeks apparently there is capabilitys to tune a Vanquish - Supercharged

hehe

it's a chevy v8, which always sounds pretty nice...

GT3 does have a vanquish but you have to win it... if you buy the game let me know and I'll find out which race you need to win... I'm currently playing with a 680bhp Vanquish, but it can be tuned up a bit more

I caught the tale end of a special James Bond Fifth Gear t'other day and apparently whilst filming the stunts for the scenes around the lake and ice palace the production team managed to "bend" somewhere in the region of 12 Vanquishes Not bad going for a days work

Do you have to win it ah - ive helped someone tune one up[talking to them VIA mobile while i walked the dog 40 mins - they had no idea about cars ie. they thought making it higher would make it faster and more aerodynamic ].
What i really like about the idea of this game was that the cars were tested[correct me if im wrong] by the manufacturers and made perfect by the manufacturers to feel like the real thing!

If you don't want to spoil the surprise of the game, don't scroll down. Otherwise scroll down to see which race you need to win...










In Professional League, win the British GT Car Cup. It's 3 x 10 laps, can't remember which tracks but that will be clear when you select that option before racing, I think. I won it using a tuned up Tuscan

no elise s2 iirc elise 190 and motorsport elise (200bhp). all can be turbo'd. supercharged cars are tuned using the option for tuning turbo'd cars.

it's pretty realistic... you get understeer, oversteer, can do powerslides and drifts, but it takes skill to do these things successfully. How good is it really? Put it this way, I only bought the PS2 for GT3.
