Aston Martin DBS - First Look
20th February 2006
James Bond fans will have to wait until November 17th 2006 to
see the car in its full glory with 007 behind the wheel in "Casino
Royale", but the first sneak peaks of the new Aston Martin
DBS have appeared today.

Details of the gadgets featured in the car are being kept under
close wraps - but MI6 can confirm that they all reside inside
the car, and are not the usual pop-up machine guns or rocket launchers.
Despite the car featuring MI6 technology, Q will not appear in
the film.
Last month, Aston
Martin confirmed that Daniel Craig visited the Aston Martin
headquarters in Gaydon, Warwickshire, on Friday 13th January to
view the featured car. While there he met Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, Dr Ulrich Bez, and members of the workforce and also
took the opportunity to take a short test drive.
Dr Ulrich Bez said: “It is great news that Bond will drive
an Aston Martin again and we have built him something special
to enable him to do his job in style.”
