Have there been any more photos or information become available? There were suggestions in the motoring press that there "may" be a gadget or two. Can those of you amongst us that have read the script shed any light on the subject. Thanks.

Apologies, should have posted in Spoilers.

The gadget that is inside the DBS is vital to Bond's survival -

- there may be other gadgets (rockets, oil slicks etc.) but they are never mentioned or used.

With that part answered, with thanks, has anyone you come across any recent photos of the car. I understand it was exhibited at the Aston Martin hospitality suite at Le Mans, and possibly elsewhere. Not having had the opportunity to look any of the US publications that are available I wondered if there had been any photos in any of those articles.

I haven't seen anything new of it yet. Just the photos that accompanied the announcement and the news reports at the time.

Here's a previous thread involving what became of the DBS's used in the film. Might be of interest.

In his last installment, he has indeed said that one of the crew took a photo of him with the car. So hopefully we'll see this picture soon... if he can find it!

Have any of the car magazines started to run articles yet? The November issues will be out shortly, but they may be waiting for the December issues as they will be the current issues on 17th November release date.

DBS is very coo. I love the scene in the trailer where he flips it. Awesome stunt.

Well Moore's Bond pushed the kid over into the water in The Man with the Golden Gun when making a getaway from Chula. :)

My understanding would require a spoiler warning; but I haven't figured out how to format for a spoiler and don't wish to aggravate my fellow CBNers needlessly. Could someone PM me with how to format for a spoiler. I don't want to try what I think is the answer, only to get it wrong and blurt my answer out in front of everone.

Have flicked through many of the current crop of UK motoring mags and the DBS doesn't feature in any as far as I can see! Surely there should be some press by now! Recently spoke with someone who has seen one of the Casino Royale Astons in the flesh and he says that it is stunning and very Bond. Let's hope so!
