I'm planning to write a Bond script and I have a great idea but I need a good title. Can someone give me some advices (If this script will be good I maybe turn it to a fan fic novel, my third after Bright Fire and Above the Ice There is Only fire, I bring you more info about my first Bond novel which I began to wrote last year which is Bright Fire :) ) Help please!

Well, first off, I suggest you just write without the title. Nickname it "Bond 21" or something for a temporary title and just write on your idea. Once its all on the page, revisit the idea of a title and find something that works genuinely with your story.

But if you're really intent on having a title, how 'bout My Enemy's Enemy? It's based on a proverb Fleming made note of ("my enemy's enemy is my friend"), but of course it only works with a certain scenario. Or how about The Sun Never Sets? A Whisper of Hate?

I'm building quite the little back log of novel titles. If you want to PM me a few details about your story - brief details giving little away - i'll throw a couple at you that may be suitable.

That's the thing. Determine the storyline and a title will come soon after.

I've wrote to a part in my Bond story "Above the Ice There is Only Fire" where Q will present Bond's new car. It will be a Porsche Carrera GT but I need help. Can you help me to give some equipment tips to the car. I don't want it to be to much movieish. More bookish (because it takes place in the books worlds not the movies). Can someone help me please :)

It is Major Boothroyd which presents it. M in my story never says Q, she says Major Boothroyd. Okay. I mean it is little moviesih with that Q-Branch car but I don't really want it to have Stinger Missiles behind the spotlights or anything like that.
