Aircooled VW South Africa

Due to hit the streets in 2010, let's just hope they manage to keep Daniel Craig OUT of it

I just wet myself

Gruesome!

That is not a car!

It's 4 medium sized bonds or
Complete study fees for 10 doctors from first year straight through to degree or
A comfortable retirement for 15 South Africans or
The total cash value of ZIMBABWE or
My dream property with every model year beetle, bus, ghia, type 3 and 4 fully restored and on display for posterity.

It looks like somebody had a little peek at the Audi R8, there is a lot of the Audi in that design??

Jaguar XK clues as well

why you say that? he didn't crash any. it was the stunt men and a delivery guy that crashed the cars

He has bad Aston Martin karma - he crashed it as part of the script of Casino Royale!

OH MY G*D!
That is FUNNY!!!!
But I don't think it is because of him. Daniel Craig RULES! Best. Bond. Ever.

If you want to pin the source of the "curse" on anyone, it should be the Director. He wanted it in there.

We have some real die hard Bond and Aston fans here

My favourite bond car was the Audi 200 Quattro (Audi 500 for us South Africans)

Audi 200 Quattro in The Living Daylights.It was fitted with BBS split rims and flared wheel arches made by the German tuning company Abt Sportsline.

Yes it was a nice car, but it was only a clever marketing campaign. The Audi was shown for a few seconds in the entire movie, and didn't even have any Q-goodies! At one stage you can also see a brief moment where Bond is sitting in a Audi station wagon.

I like the DB9 more thanks.. This ones has some hints of the Maseratti MC12 in the front and its lights are in the wrong place

*lol*

I didn't watch the movie Just like the car

Speaking of movie props, a handsome grey 200 Turbo quattro on three-piece BBS wheels was parked along one wall. It turns out that this particular sedan was used in the James Bond movie The Living Daylights, one of several occurrences of Audi product placements in the British spy movie series..

Thanks for the pics Pine!

Interestingly enough, we never got the Audi 500 Station Wagon here, although there are a few private imports running around
