Mr Bond's cars for his next Flick

Click image to enlarge

Jaguar Land Rover has confirmed its line-up of star cars for the next James Bond film, Spectre. Topping the bill will be the C-X75 hypercar that’ll go head-to-head in a “spectacular” car chase through Rome with 007’s Aston Martin DB10. There's also two modified Land Rovers making notable appearances.

The Jaguar C-X75 will be driven by the film's main villain, challenging Bond himself in what should be an impressive inner-city car chase between the two British marques. This is the first time the production C-X75 will appear since the supercar project was shelved back in December 2012.

We understand Jaguar's hypercar, of which more than one has been used for filming, has been prepared by Williams Advanced Engineering. It will reportedly borrow the F-Type coupe's 5.0-litre supercharged V8 as opposed to the original concept's hybrid powertrain.

The C-X75 is only one part of a product showcase by the Jaguar's in-house Special Vehicle Operations division, however. “Heavily modified” versions of the Land Rover Defender and Range Rover Sport SVR will feature in scenes filmed in Austria – uprated to an extent that Land Rover is calling the Defender used in the film 'Big Foot'.

Special Vehicle Operations, the new bespoke and high performance division of Jaguar Land-Rover, has fitted the cars with huge 37-inch off-road tyres, bespoke suspension systems and enhanced body protection to deal with the rigorous requirements for the film. Managing director John Edwards said: “This is an exciting partnership for Jaguar Land Rover, and an opportunity to demonstrate the fantastic capabilities of the team.” ====================================

Really pleased to see the Defender getting a "big send off" in the film, given that we are in it's last year of production

I saw the CX-75 at the Paris Motor Show back in 2012, it was a stunning looking car!
Didn't know it had been shelved though, pity.
