Teaser: Full speed with Bond’s Aston Martin DBS V12!

After months of hard work, the time has finally come; these are the first video images of our adventure with the Aston Martin DBS V12! James Bond’s car in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace! Our upcoming video is a boy’s dream, full of fantastic moments, brimming with excitement and adrenaline.

Our adventure starts at the Louwman Museum in The Hague. Besides the DBS V12, there are also a V8 Vantage and V8 Vantage Roadster in attendance! But which one should I choose? Naturally, there’s only one model suitable as the main subject of our adventure. The DBS with the mighty V12.

Under the bonnet of the DBS V12 lies a non-turbocharged engine, with six litres of displacement and 517hp/380kW. 0 to 100 km/h? Just 4 seconds! The Aston is a car with two faces, one that comfortably takes you to your destination and the other one, with a few presses of the designated buttons, transforms it into a sports car. And I haven’t even mentioned the sound that the V12 treats you to yet!

DBS in the Bond-films

When George Lazenby takes over from Sean Connery as James Bond, it’s time for a new company car. The DBS from On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969) is equipped with a V8 and 282hp/207kW.

In Casino Royale (2006) and Quantum of Solace (2008), the then-fresh agent 007 drives the model you see in our teaser. He rescues Vesper and takes Mister White to Siena for questioning.

It’s the new agent 007, Nomi, who picks up James Bond in No Time To Die (2021) with an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera. The car is truly a gimmick in the Aston-dominated film about the end of an era full of intrigue and fatherhood.

The Sapphire Blue luxury SUV

A Lexus NX 450h+ in Sapphire Blue supported our adventure alongside the Aston Martin DBS V12. A comfortable plug-in hybrid that provides you with nearly 100 electric kilometres in city traffic. Our NX450h+ is an F Sport Line and filled with luxury.

For instance, the climate concierge is standard. It works simultaneously with the automatic air conditioning, heated and cooled seats. The car is available from € 82,790. The NX range starts at € 61,995. This NX350h Comfort Line isn’t available with a plug-in hybrid drivetrain.

Coming soon

Stay tuned, our adventure with the Aston Martin DBS V12 and its two siblings will be released soon!
