Works fine for me....

Basically, Ford have paid almost £14m to have a souped up AUTO Mondeo in the film.

Yes, but are Ford going to turn around and say "If you don't use the Mondy, you ain't having the Aston!"

Car placements in Bond films has been a very successful marketing move for nearly all of the main cars that have been featured over the years. I'm sure Ford will consider it a sound investment.

I'm sure BMW paid large amounts to have their cars featured in recent films.....it's usually a hard fought battle for manufacturers to have THEIR car featured as they feel it's the ultimate publicity.

I can't see Ford saying that - if they did Broccoli would say bolocks, I'm sure Audi / Mercedes / BMW will oblige..............

I predict this will be the worst Bond movie since that Dlaton character and it wont be the cars fault.

What kind of man doesn't know how to drive a manual, punk!!!
