Guys, I just had to share with you a bit of info. Today I've been holed up in a studio in Buckinghamshire with the Bond DBS. I've sat in it and driven it (well, moved it around the studio!) and without a shadow of doubt, it is the best looking car I've ever clapped eyes on.

This car was the one used for the majority of driving footage from the film and there were one or two telltale scuff marks but it was otherwise mint. There's a 6.0-litre V12 under the bonnet and the wheels are no longer those mirror finished bling items shown on press shots a few months ago. The panel gaps weren't quite right, being a prototype, but the quality of finish was breathtaking. The interior could have been designed by Chanel - it's that gorgeous.

Sorry but I can't show you any pics as there's an embargo until the beginning of November but trust me, this car is so much more than a souped up DB9. It is perfect - sell the wife and kids right now and get those deposits in.

Sat in the DBS back in June and it's indeed a bit special, if only a DB9 with body pack. Looking forward to seeing it performing in Casino Royale.
