The movie began shooting a few weeks ago, and yes, Bond actor Daniel Craig has been spotted behind the wheel. However, it's not an electric Aston Martin as had been ex- pected. While this may still be the case, some images have emerged of 007 behind the wheel of something very dif- ferent. Bond, in the new film, drives an old open-top Series III Land Rover. The official synopsis for "Bond 25" is that it begins with Bond enjoying retirement in Jamaica, where the pictures have been taken, and we don't know how the Land Rover fits into the story. Land Rover has reportedly confirmed its involvement in the film, continuing a relation- ship that stretches back to the 20th film Die Another Day when the firm was still under Ford ownership. Aston Mar- tin's rumoured involvement has also been confirmed, but whether it will be supplying electric cars to the production or not remains to be seen. The blue Land Rover wouldn't exactly be ideal for evading or chasing baddies, so with any luck, we will see Bond in a more potent machine when the film hits cinemas next year. Aston Martin's recently re- vealed Rapide E, which is As- ton Martin's first all-electric production vehicle, is the car central to all Bond car-related rumours. Only 155 Rapide Es are ex- pected to be built, and if it is to star in the movie, it's currently unclear as to whether any cars from that number will be used in filming or whether addition- al cars or replicas will be made.
