James Bond to drive a Ford Ka!
In the papers yesterday, the Ford Ka will be his main vehicle! Daniel had to fight to have the Aston make a small appearance at the end.
I know all about product placement but whatever next?? Bond dressed in Burton clothing?

Christ, when will the product placement in Bond films ever end? 
Do Ford really think this will make people buy a Ka? It didn't make me want to buy a Thunder(Chunder)Bird or a Mondeo.
I suppose its to do with the new one due to be launched soon...which is about time. Its based on a 19 year old chassis design!

As he's driven a 2CV in a previous film I'd imagine a KA is a major upgrade. Plus Bond doesn't need a car to bolster his ego unlike some people it would seem...........

Ford have paid circa £35M to have the new Ka seen in Quantum of Solace, but I don't believe DC is gonna be actually driving it - it is involved in a specif scene.
The AM DBS makes a welcome return and DC arrived in Italy on Sunday to recommence filming around Lake Garda - the opening sequence to the film is rumoured to have a high speed chase around the lake itself (with the DBS - high-speed and the Ka just don't go do they
) ending in a rather large explosion.
I believe QoS is costing around £230M to make, so it's not surprising they need a little bit of product placement. Was the Austin Powers films that took the p*ss out of product placements? It was funny, whichever it was.
