BOND: The Cars

After the record-breaking seven barrells rolls for Casino Royal, Daniel Craig was back behind the wheel for a nailbiting pre-credit sequence along the shore of Italy's Lake Garda. With the evil Mr White in the boot and Bond's driver's door ripped off, he takes on a pair of black Alfa Romeos trying to gun him off the road.

The four-week shoot was cursed with calamity - first off an Aston Martin employee was fined four hundred quid for reckless driving when he crashed one car into the lake. Two days later two stuntmen were seriously injured, with Italian stuntman Aris Comninos, having to be put in intensive care. Stunt co-ordinator Gary Powell later said the accidents were a testament to the realism of the action. Six Astons were destroyed during filming.
