Captiva paintball

The bonnet-mounted cannon fires paintballs.

Aspiring James Bond types will love GM's new sport.

Zooming around a track while demolishing targets with paintballs fired from a bonnet-mounted cannon.

The catches? It's in a Captiva rather than an 007-styled Aston Martin -- which limits the dynamic potential of the zooming a little -- and it's being done only in the UK at the moment to mark the launch of the vehicle there.

However, if the new sport catches on as Carsguide thinks it deserves to, maybe we'll see it here before long.

Holden Commodores at 20 paces, anyone?

Likes all cars of Australia, you take the time to have a shot at Ex-holden owner but don’t bother to rate the car yourself, atleast he rated it and I agree with him.

Ex-Holden Owner, sounds like you need to grow up. If you don’t like GM or their cars then why not just keep it to yourself instead of mindlessly ranting.

S#%T car and stupid concept for marketing it. Grow up General Motors! Try designing a more practical, fuel efficient and reliable car instead of this rubbish!
