Aston Martin DBS on Top Gear
According to one report Craig, 38, couldn't drive a car with a manual gearbox, prompting jokes of Bond kangarooing away from the bad guys in his Aston Martin.
"Of course I can drive a manual car," he says. "I flogged the arse out of an Aston Martin DBS around Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear track.
"And in the film I got the car up to 170mph. When I braked, we had those brakes just f**king glowing. Will that do?

I don't think Aston is on life support at all, it's supposedly very profitable. Jag, on the other hand, is on life support.
