Aston Martin is celebrating the release of the 25th James Bond film, with two exclusive 007 special editions inspired by the cars featured in No Time to Die<\/em>. This new collaboration between Aston Martin and EON Productions, the company that produces the James Bond films with Metro Goldwyn Mayer Studios, delivers exciting new 007 editions of the Aston Martin Vantage and DBS Superleggera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No Time To Die <\/em>will be released around the world in November 2020 and will feature no fewer than four iconic Aston Martin sports cars: the iconic DB5; the classic Aston Martin V8; the brand\u2019s latest super GT, DBS Superleggera; and the exceptional Aston Martin Valhalla \u2013 the company\u2019s forthcoming mid-engined hypercar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The two special editions that celebrate the release of No Time To Die<\/em>, each of which is being offered in limited numbers to buyers around the world from today, have been carefully designed and crafted by the experts in Aston Martin\u2019s bespoke division: Q by Aston Martin. Aspiring to offer the ultimate in bespoke personalisation services, Q by Aston Martin delivers both carefully curated special editions such as these, as well as the opportunity for individual owners to embark on the creation of utterly individual sports cars via the Q by Aston Martin \u2013 Commission service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first of the two models is the Vantage 007 Edition, inspired by the original Aston Martin V8 which made its 007 debut in The Living Daylights<\/em> in 1987 and also features in No Time to Die<\/em>. The movie sees James Bond uncover the car from his personal lock-up in London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on the formidable sporting style and aggressive performance of the regular Vantage, the new car features unique exterior styling treatments led by a bespoke mesh grille with chrome bezel that references the look of the brand\u2019s classic V8. Further styling details include a dashed yellow diffuser inspired by the hazard stripes on the film car\u2019s rockets. The Vantage 007 Edition can even be delivered with a set of The Living Daylights<\/em> inspired limited edition skis and ski rack \u2013 referencing the \u2018winterised\u2019 V8 saloon from the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The car will be delivered in authentic Cumberland Grey exterior paint colour, whilst the interior will be presented in obsidian black leather and dark chrome with 007 branding applied on the centre console of cars equipped with a manual gearbox. The sun visors of all the cars will carry another subtle film reference in the shape of an embroidered radio station frequency \u2013 96.60 (FM) \u2013 which 007 buffs will know was the Russian police frequency Bond used to aid his escape in The Living Daylights<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The seats themselves feature unique heritage fluting reminiscent of that seen in the V8, along with carbon fibre seat backs and, in a particularly detailed nod to the 1980s film, the outline of cello \u2018f holes\u2019 inspired by the memorable cello chase scene featuring James Bond (Timothy Dalton) and Kara Milovy (Maryam D\u2019Abo).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The driver can indulge themselves further with a laser-etched gadget plaque that references the various weapons and devices seen on the original film car. These included a rocket motor, missiles, lasers, a targeting display and ski outriggers. Cross hairs etched onto the car\u2019s paddle shift gear levers allude to the missile guidance system seen in the film, too. Available as a manual or automatic, the Vantage 007 Edition also boasts a side strake Vantage badge and is limited to 100 units globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    “Creating a 007 Edition is always an exciting challenge as we work to develop and style a car that embodies the legend of James Bond. It is an honour to apply the carefully-judged 007-inspired styling to our sports cars, which gives our customers the opportunity to own a unique piece of both cinematic and automotive history.” <\/em><\/p>Marek Reichman, Vice President & Chief Creative Officer, Aston Martin <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    To celebrate the James Bond debut of the range-topping Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, a second unique 007 Edition has been created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Strictly limited to just 25 production cars available worldwide and featuring the same specification as the muscular DBS Superleggera featured in the upcoming film, the car has a suitably menacing road presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The 715bhp provided by the DBS Superleggera\u2019s 5.2-litre V12 twin-turbocharged engine is befitting of the car\u2019s range-topping status while its torque peak, at 900Nm, is not only substantial in its own right but, as things currently stand, the greatest torque figure for any roadgoing Aston Martin yet produced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To this potent mix, the DBS Superleggera 007 Edition adds a raft of styling and design enhancements that further elevate its appeal. The car sports special Ceramic Grey exterior paint with the roof, mirror caps, splitter, diffuser and rear Aeroblade II featured in black tinted carbon fibre. Also unique to the 007 Edition are visually striking Gloss Black diamond-turned Y-Spoke 21\u201d wheels. This special edition also features a 007 fender badge, finished in chrome with a black enamel infill and Stainless Steel Silver 007 foil applied to the rear spoiler blade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Inside, the cockpit of this DBS Superleggera is a dark, brooding, leather-clad environment with flashes of red detailing the outline of the seats. Subtle 007 branding can be found on the door cards, armrest buckle badge and on the rear sub-woofer cover. The car is finished with a sill plaque that recognises it is one of just 25 DBS Superleggera 007 Editions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
