Aston Martin DB5 James Bond SKYFALL video preview

The new James Bond film – SKYFALL – features the most iconic Bond car – the Aston Martin DB5 – featured in this video preview. As we reported back in February, the makers of the new James Bond film, Skyfall, have decided to sprinkle a bit of historic Bond fairy dust on their new movie with the return of the Aston Martin DB5 to Bond. And with the release of Skyfall getting closer (it debuts in the UK on 26th October) the makers are getting a bit of Aston Martin PR rolling with this video showing the DB5 in action on the Bond set.
