Daniel Craig’s James Bond and the Aston Martin Legacy (2006–2021)

Daniel Craig’s James Bond and the Aston Martin Legacy (2006–2021)

When Daniel Craig took on the role of James Bond 007, he redefined the character, grittier, more human, and deeply emotional. Across five films, one constant remained: Aston Martin. Each movie paired Bond with a distinct Aston Martin that reflected his evolving character, making the cars as symbolic as they were iconic.

Casino Royale (2006)—Aston Martin DBS V12

Craig’s debut introduced a raw, newly promoted 007, and the Aston Martin DBS V12 matched that intensity perfectly. Sleek, powerful, and uncompromising, the DBS represented Bond stripped of excess, pure performance and purpose. Its unforgettable high-speed crash scene cemented the DBS as one of the most dramatic Bond cars ever.

Quantum of Solace (2008)—Aston Martin DBS V12

The story continues immediately, and so does the DBS. Opening the film with a brutal car chase, the battered yet relentless DBS mirrors Bond’s emotional state, damaged, driven, and unstoppable. This was Aston Martin as a weapon, not a luxury.

Skyfall (2012)—Aston Martin DB5

No Bond car carries more history than the Aston Martin DB5. Its return in Skyfall symbolized heritage, loyalty, and identity. Equipped once again with classic gadgets, the DB5 bridged past and present, reminding audiences who Bond truly is beneath the scars.

Spectre (2015)—Aston Martin DB10

Designed exclusively for the film, the DB10 was a cinematic one-off. Aggressive and futuristic, it reflected Bond at his most conflicted, caught between duty and personal truth. The DB10’s rarity made it an instant legend.

No Time to Die (2021)—Aston Martin DB5, V8 Vantage & DBS Superleggera

Craig’s final chapter was a tribute to legacy. Featuring multiple Aston Martins, the spotlight shone on the DB5 and V8 Vantage, symbols of Bond’s past, while the DBS Superleggera represented modern power and finality. It was a farewell written in horsepower and heritage.
