Stunt Driver Crashes Aston Martin DBS En Route to New 007 James Bond Film

Posted by Admin on April 26, 2008

Perhaps to be filed under “Loonraker”, a stunt driver was on his way to deliver the £120,000 Aston Martin DBS sportscar to the set of “Quantum of Solace” when he drove the car off a narrow bend in heavy rain, producers said.

Italian television showed the car – reportedly the only one available for the film – being fished from the lake after the accident in the early hours of Saturday morning.

While the car was a quantum of sogginess, the driver managed to escape a water-soaked fate with only minor cuts and bruises. We’re thinking it’s almost ok to lose such a car while following the script in front of the camera and crew, but a tad bit less acceptable when you’re just trying to deliver the car to the set.

Oh, and for the Aston, it was fished out of the lake, to Dry Another Day….
