The name’s Evans. Mitch Evans and the Kiwi has a license to drive a Jaguar XF across London to mark the release of the new James Bond film, No Time to Die. 

As Jaguar Racing’s Formula E driver Mitch Evans aimed to be among the very first to see the film. with the video set against some of the capital’s most iconic landmarks including the Shard, Tower Bridge, City Hall and Millennium Bridge. 

Evans, who is at the wheel of the Santorini Black XF R-Dynamic HSE, is unaware he is being pursued by free runner and Parkour athlete Lynn Jung. The plot of the video? He has unwittingly dropped his tickets to the screening and Jung is “determined to ensure his wait to see No Time To Die is over”, says Jaguar UK. 

 The six-mile chase starts in Laffone Street, close to Tower Bridge, and weaves its way across the city with Lynn running, jumping and somersaulting in pursuit of Mitch,

Throughout the race across town, 007 fans will spot a few familiar faces along the route, including a bullet-holed XF from No Time to Die as well as notable Jaguar models that appeared in past films, including the C-X75 from Spectre (2015) and the XKR Convertible from Die Another Day (2002). 

With Daniel Craig handing back his license to kill after No Time To Die, we suggest Kiwi Mitch would make a great James Bond.
