Aston Martin

Ever since Pierce Bronson (as James Bond) drove up to the Icelandic Vatnajökull glacier, I've wanted a Aston Martin Vanquish.

This car has had some really nice product placement (i.e., Die Another Day and Italian Job). In Die Another Day, Ford paid to place three cars in the movie; the Aston Martin Vanquish, the Jaguar XKR and the Ford Thunderbird.

Now that Ford has decided to test the waters and sell the Aston Martin division, I thought I might make a suggestion to the new CEO on a potential buyer. How about Sir Richard Branson? Imagine the next version of the cars could be called the Virgin Vanquish; Virgin Vantage; Virgin DB9.
