Although actor Daniel Craig doesn't actually have a laser built into his watch or a poison-tipped pen, one element from his James Bond character is transferring over into his real life: Aston Martins. Craig discovered recently he has a lifetime drive deal with Aston. Now anytime he wants, Craig can ring up the very British (but Kuwaiti owned) car company and take one of its cars for a spin.

Craig says, "I'm lucky enough that if I desperately want to drive in an Aston Martin, the company is just fantastic to me. They'll let me go on a track and drive one all day long."

Aston Martin wants to always be associated with bond, but this plan could backfire. Now that Craig always has access to one, he may think twice about making a purchase. "I could drive it faster and more furiously (on the track) than anywhere on the road. I live in London (and) it doesn't make any sense to drive an Aston Martin there. I've nowhere to park it."
