The Next James Bond Film

[Jon39]

The release date for the next film has been announced as November 2019.

We have been told the sequence of AM new models, so if you were Andy Palmer, which Aston Martin would you want Mr. Bond to drive in the next movie?

The DBX needs to be a big seller, so could that be a contender?

(they've done 4 door hero cars before).

The remote control BMW 7 Series, supposedly in a car park chase.
I like nearly believable, but that was appalling.
Think we might gave only seen BMW once, in the Bond films.

I think while the DBS has been out testing in the wild, the press releases and talk from the good Doctor have said the Vanquish will be here this year. I expected to see the DBS in production first. Given the film's timing, it might be a switch-a-roo, and the DBS appearing in the film following the Vanquish launching this year, time will tell on that front.

I am probably wrong, but I had thought that the replacement for the present Vanquish (testing photographs), is going to be named DBS.
If correct, and therefore that becomes the top mainstream model, which car will use the Vanquish name ?

Looks like being discussed at moment as AP Twitter shows 4 modern Bond AMs at Gaydon foyer (if include Vanquish in Die Another Day), DB10, DBS from Quantum and assume a Casino Royale DBS (but hard to see if roll damaged in photo).

I don't know whether AP likes to play teasing games, but have you noticed the picture on the back wall ?

The Z8 was a kit car as BMW had only made one shell at the time.

It's not unusual, the Vanquish and XKR in DaD had the guts ripped out of them and were powered by Ford small blocks with 4WD systems. They did a decent job dubbing the V12 soundtrack back on in post production

Am I correct in saying, the first time the DBS was in a Bond film, it was a DB9 with altered bodywork, because it was then too early for a complete DBS to be available ?

And dumped one in Lake Garda. Drove mine on same road, not surprised, crazy Fiats coming at you in every tunnel

I don't think that was even anything to do with filming, but they might have wished it had been caught on camera.
Adjust the script slightly, maybe Bond escapes a watery grave using an ejector seat. That piece of equipment was very popular last time.
