Reuters reports that (spoiler ahead!) in the opening scene of Sony and MGM's Casino Royale, James Bond (Daniel Craig) will pursue his latest enemy in a four-wheel W190 bulldozer supplied by Fiat, the Italian industrial group.

Although its vehicles have appeared in a number of movies including the Alfa Romeo Spider in The Graduate, it is the first time that Fiat will have one starring in a Bond movie.

"We are very happy and proud of it," said spokeswoman Silvia Cassani, who assured that none of the bulldozers, excavators or loaders supplied to the movie's producers were destroyed in the mayhem usually associated with a Bond action scene.

Ford Motor will also be using the movie to promote the Aston Martin, which will be driven by Bond after being behind the wheel of a BMW 750 iL in previous adventures.
