According to a source at the Sun, James Bond’s Aston Martin DB5 spotted on location in Scotland recently, will be carrying some of the old favorite gadgets.
A Skyfall source said: “This car defines everything that is James Bond. It looks good and goes like a rocket. There’s a real buzz about its return.”
The Aston Martin seen on location still carries the same license plate as seen in Goldfigner.

Hope they used the gagets from Goldfinger. Will there be a car chase in SKYFALL?

Lol. the “source” says that it LOOKS & GOES like a rocket, not that it will shoot rockets.
Gadgets are ok, as long as they don’t do a DAD pt 2. Besides, objective fans know that there are only a few Bondmovies with a lot of gadgets…
Besides: that something like The Sun still sells amuses & amazes me.

It was in CR too btw. I like that car, who doesn’t, but it’s not that it has been absent for 20 years
Maybe it’s the same DB5 as seen in CR?

Great to see one of the staples of Bond back on the screen. I suppose this news will shake and stir people to through negitave comments about, but really gadgets are a part of the Bond Franchise heritage, no denying!
I thought DAD was good actually, these days it’s all about Craig killing people with his bare hands.
Sure DAD was a bit predictable but i miss the glamourous and sophisticated bond….maybe i should go read the Glamour magaziene?

So much for the new direction. What’s the point of going harder edge when you stick whimpy gadgets in a car. Never loved the old DB5 for it’s gadgets just thought it was just an awesome looking car. Oh well. Maybe this is all false.

Come guys Well that might had been the use in Goldfinger but Bond actual Duty car should have gadget to run his enemies off the road. The Aston Martin Classic DB5 is his off Duty car.
