These Bond actors have caused the most car damages, totalling over £1.9M!
The original Bond, Sean Connery, takes the top spot for causing the most damages, costing a whopping £675,000 from a single crash! Connery’s 007 crashes his iconic 1964 Aston Martin into a wall, unsuccessfully trying to evade Goldfinger’s henchmen.
The most recent Bond, Daniel Craig, takes second place causing £564,658 worth of damages. Daniel Craig’s car collection includes three Aston Martins, with one spectacularly written off after sinking to the bottom of the Tiber during a car chase in Rome.
Timothy Dalton ranks in third place, causing £232,750 worth of damages. Despite only starring in two films and writing off two cars, Dalton makes it into the top three thanks to the self-destruct feature in his 1987 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Volante, which he is forced to detonate to flee from the KGB.
