James Bond is dandy. But being James Bond is even better. Bond star Daniel Craig gets all the perks that even James Bond himself could not get. One of them is landing free drives with Aston Martin for a lifetime! Minus the deliberate Aston Martins crashes into rock quarries of course.

So Daniel Craig can now drive any Aston Martin he pleases anywhere and anytime. Take note: Aston Martin so he is not just limited to the Aston Martin DBS model! His only problem is the parking and the problem of practicality. He was quoted saying that:

"I could drive it faster and more furiously (on the track) than anywhere on the road. I live in London (and) it doesn't make any sense to drive an Aston Martin there. I've nowhere to park it."

Good point. The Aston Martin is a Brit luxury sports car that sadly does not come in cheap. And if ever you get one, you can not use it everyday. Well, at least it is usable unlike the wrecked auctioned out Aston Martin. I'll tell you about that later. Aston Martins are great as a "weekend toy or a luxurious track car." And so however, Daniel Craif does feel lucky because the company could just give him any of the Aston Martins he wants if he feels like driving one. Oh come on! Who wouldn't?

Just last week, if you can remember, we reported about the auctioned Aston Martin DBS wreck that was sold by a fan for about a staggering cost of 200,000 pounds. Yeah, that is what I was saying earlier. So that is about 350,000 dollars in US. And to think, a brand new Aston Martin only costs about 60,000 thousand pounds less! It is still not cheap as it costs for about 134,000 pounds. So this completely dead metal wreck was fished out from the Lake Garda in northern Italy. The stunt was reportedly unscripted, causing some injuries on the occupants in the area.
