Bond to drive Ford minicar in new film
Ford Motor Co. said its redesigned Ka city car would debut in the upcoming Bond film Quantum of Solace, scheduled for release in North America on Nov. 7.

Ford struck a three-movie contract with Bond producers, starting with Die Another Day in 2002. Financial terms were not disclosed. In his 2006 debut as 007, British actor Daniel Craig appeared behind the wheel of a Ford Mondeo sedan and was flipped at high-speed in an Aston Martin, a legendary Bond ride and a luxury brand then-owned by Ford.... // Driving.ca 19/08/2008 19:45 New Ford to debut in movie Windsor Star

In the film--which opens in the UK and France at the end of October, and in Europe and the U.S. in November--the Ka car is driven by Olga Kurylenko, who plays Camille, Bond's filmic squeeze. It is a bit of a switch for Ford, which has relied on Bond films to promote "halo" cars like Mustang and premium vehicles, particularly those in what Ford used to call its Premier Automotive Group.

DETROIT (RTRS): James Bond has outrun evildoers in a BMW with
rocket launchers, a high-performance Mustang and an Aston Martin
with an ejector seat. But now, at a time of record gas prices, is
the super-spy ready for a minicar? Ford Motor Co said Thursday its

According to Ford, the Ka will be piloted by Camille (played by

Girls.' Seeking a car that was reportedly "adventurous,
individual, and thoroughly modern," producers matched the character
with the new subcompact. We see little truly "individual"
