Daniel Craig Drives Range Rover, Gets $1 Million
The new Range Rover Sport that was unveiled at the 2013 New York International Auto Show had got a special introduction on the eve of the opening day. New York was given a special preview as it was driven through the city before arriving at the venue.
In the driver's seat was no ordinary driver, but Daniel Craig aka James Bond himself, who was commissioned to drive the all British SUV and deliver it for the presentation ceremony held at Jacob Javits Convention Center.
The James Bond star was shown in the video, driving the Range Rover Sport out from its UK manufacturing plant, then on Manhattan Bridge and finally there he was on the red carpet.
Craig's part in the launch event was kept extremely brief, lasting only a few minutes of stage time.
The actor posed for shutterbugs, answered a couple of questions and he was gone.
The price for this brief appearance, according to New York Post, was a cool $1 million.
"We won't comment on our relationship with Mr. Craig beyond confirming that Land Rover supports the charity S.A.F.E., of which the actor is a patron, and will continue its charitable efforts with a vehicle donation later this year," a Land Rover spokesperson told NYP. S.A.F.E is a Kenya and U.K based non profit organization that works towards social and medical causes in Kenya.
