Prince William secretly took Kate on James Bond-style Aston Martin test drive

PRINCE William secretly treated wife Kate to a 007-style drive in a top-of-the-range Aston Martin SUV on a weekend test drive.

The Prince of Wales, 40, took the Welsh-built 193mph DBX707 — the world’s fastest SUV — for a spin around country lanes.

The £189,000 motor is one of thousands rolling off the production line in St Athan, South Wales. It is the first production car built in Wales in more than 50 years.

An insider said: “William was spotted behind the wheel buzzing round the winding country lanes of North Norfolk.”

Bond has driven Astons on screen since 1964’s Goldfinger, and William drove Kate, left, in one leaving Buckingham Palace after their 2011 wedding.

Bond producer Barbara Broccoli, 62, joked the Prince was the “perfect candidate” to take over the role after Daniel Craig, 54, left.
