Die another day cars

In the new James Bond movie Die another Day, Jaguar will be sending the movie producers 8 jaguar XKR series sports cars that have been torqued, molded, and cut to fit the mean look for the role they must play as bond’s newest villain’s car. Bond will be driving an Aston Martin Vanquish and will have a dog fight type showdown on an iced over lake with the XKR being piloted by his new enemy; Zao. The results are simply breathtaking. Both the XKR and the Vanquish are equipped with missiles, machine guns,
shotguns, anti weapon devices, and great looks. They are equally matched which makes for a great fight. They have both been equipped with a ford v8 triton motor with 4wheel drive systems for two reasons; the cars were just too powerful for the ice and the 4wheel drive systems help keep the cars straight on the ice. The scenes were filmed in Iceland against the backdrop of the Vatnajokull glacier, Bond tracks Zao to his ice palace hideaway and a car chase follows.
