James Bond movies are no stranger to destroying vehicle for action scenes. Director Sam Mendes recently revealed that the team behind "Spectre" had destroyed £24-million-worth of Aston Martin DB10 sports cars for the movie.

"We set the record for smashing up cars on Spectre. In Rome, we wrecked millions of pounds worth," chief stunt co-ordinator Gary Powell told Event Magazine. "They were going into the Vatican at top speeds of 110 mph. We shot one entire night for four seconds of film."

During the filming of a chase scene in Italy, a total of seven specially-designed Aston Martin DB10 sports cars were destroyed. The sports cars were equipped with the iconic ejector seat.

According to the magazine, the car race went through the Vatican, the Colosseum and along the River Tiber. Another mind-blowing action scene included the secret agent in his Aston Martin, pursued at high speed by a villain riding a Jaguar C-X75 through the streets of Rome.

"Spectre" is another movie to feature epic car demolition this year after "Furious 7" and "Mad Max: Fury Road". In "Spectre", a cryptic message from Bond's past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organization. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind Spectre.

Daniel Craig reprises his role as the spy agent for the fourth time. He is joined by Lea Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Ralph Fiennes and Dave Bautista in the cast. The movie will be released in the U.K. on October 6 before getting its U.S. release later on November 6.
