The Other Bond Cars

James bond has been known for flashy girls and flashier cars. His most notable choice is the Aston Martin marque. It is not really that surprising as the automaker has been producing high quality vehicles with the looks that can make anyone crane their necks for a better look.

But a Bond film is not complete without a supporting cast and these people also uses cars just like you and me. Now, these guys (and gals) would not have been permitted to drive on Aston Martins and other elite brand as it might take some of the attention away from Bond's car. So, they end up using other cars.

Let us take a look at what other cars have been featured on Bond films in the past.

According to Wikipedia, an AMC Concord was featured in the movie Moonraker. It was used when 007 and villain Hugo Drax were pigeon hunting. Apart from this station wagon, a Jeep Wagoneer was also used on the film. For those who do not know exactly what the Wagoneer is, think of it as the forefather of today's SUVs.

Another Jeep was used on another Bond film. This time it's the Jeep Cherokee. Bond's lady friend Stacy Sutton was seen driving home on a Jeep Cherokee in the film A View to a Kill. Another XJ Cherokee was used for the film Tomorrow Never Dies although it was only displayed near Wai Lin's hideout.

These vehicles just shows that not even an Aston Martin which can outstrip any Acura MDX with vent visor is enough to make a Bond film complete. With a new Bond film on the way, be sure to keep a lookout for cars (other than the Aston Martin) that will be featured on it.
