“#FifeRP (Fife Road Policing) stopped this speeding Aston Martin on the A92 today. Driver reported to @COPFS.

Hide AdThe Aston Martin is widely recognised as the most famous movie car of all time and is a regular fixture of the James Bond franchise.
The latest 007 blockbuster - No Time To Die - features four iconic Aston Martins.
The motors range between £120,000 and £225,000.
Social media users were quick to praise the officers – and had a bit of fun at the driver’s expense.
Rrod Niam posted: “Ahh licenced to thrill, but did not impress Fife's finest with your 91mph. I’m sure the three points and £100 won't stop the driver in future.”
