Reportedly NWK60P was specially built to test suspension components and was awful to drive which is why it appeared in so few New Avengers episodes.

+1. Besides the fact that humans are already infantilized enough by modern society without having cars that do the driving for them, the only vehicle I can imagine that is worse than a Toyota Prius is a Toyota Prius that drives itself.

1958 Skoda 1100 OHC:

Triumph Italia.

You may also want to check out Finders Keepers, Lovers Weepers which opens with a Fiat 124 Spyder and Coupe driving fast circles in the desert round a topless gogo dancer.

Technically that's the Austin 1100. They may have sold about 7 in the US, but they sold about 342 zillion of them, plus the Morris, MG, Wolseley, Riley & Vanden Plas versions here in the UK.

Bad Renault! Bad! Less of this Prius-Leaf-Transport Pod nonsense! More of this instead:

Also, it's "good nick" not "good knick".

In the UK when the Pentastar was adopted in the 1970s as all the former Rootes Group cars became Chryslers, it was sometimes referred to as the Cat Anus.

It's actually not a convertible per se because it had no roof, just an upholstered hump behind the seats to represent a folded roof . They made 2 for the movie - Toyota own one, the other has apparently long since vanished.

You did not get the 1800. Luckily.

Saw the article and thought I know someone called something the "America" and it was driving me nuts trying to remember what! This isn't a landcrab, though, that name was reserved for these:

Ah memories, I used to have one of those, it was such a nice car. Fast too, even though it was only a 1300. That is one impressive engine, even if it does have an even number of cylinders!

I knew 3 out of 10, but surely there are FAR more obscure cars than the Volvo 480? Matchbox even made a model of it:

Skoda 1000MBX Coupe. Knew about the 1000MB Sedan, but not this awkwardly-roofed 2-door:

Hi, I am the 1994 Ford Mustang and I would like my face back.

That's good - I knew a guy here in the UK who had an '85 that had insane rust issues. When he took it apart for restoration, he found it had started rusting in the middle of the roof.

Fleming was a fan of the Studebaker.

Fords are everywhere in Goldfinger. Felix Leiter has his T-Bird, Tilly has her Mustang, Goldfinger has a Country Squire and a Falcon Ranchero AND uses a Lincoln Continental to dispose of Mr Solo in. Another T-Bird appears briefly at the beginning of Thunderball.

Pantera is much better at looking sexy and awesome and rusting and not starting than it is at crashing:
