Sorry for the poor picture. I get a bit nervous taking pictures of cars on other people's property.
Always liked these Ghia specced Fords from the 1980s and their velour interiors.
As part of a significant product placement movie appearance by AMC, a 1974 Hornet X Hatchback is featured in the James Bond film: The Man with the Golden Gun, where Roger Moore made his second appearance as the British secret agent.
The film's "most outrageous sequence" begins with Sheriff J.W. Pepper, who, on holiday in Thailand with his wife, is admiring a new, red AMC Hornet in a Bangkok showroom. He is about to test drive the car. The action begins as James Bond commandeers the Hornet from the dealership with Pepper in it for a car chase. The Hornet performs an "airborne pirouette as it makes a hold-your-breath jump across a broken bridge".
The stunt car is significantly modified with a redesigned chassis to place the steering wheel in the center and a lower stance, as well as larger wheel wells, compared to the stock Hornet used in all the other movie shots. The 360-degree mid-air twisting corkscrew was captured in just one filming sequence. Seven tests were performed in advance before the one jump performed by an uncredited British stuntman "Bumps" Williard for the film with six (or eight, depending on the source) cameras simultaneously rolling. Two frogmen were positioned in the water, as well as an emergency vehicle and a crane were ready, but not needed. The Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory (CAL) was used for computer modeling to calculate the stunt. The modeling called for a 1,460 kg (3,219 lb) weight of car and driver, the exact angles and the 15.86-metre (52 ft) distance between the ramps, as well as the 64-kilometre-per-hour (40 mph) launch speed.

Eurobricks is hosting a competition to design a SEAT model (part of the VW Group) to the 'miniland' scale.
www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=93189
The winning design will be showered with everlasting glory, as it is displayed in the miniland area of Legoland Billund.
The entry shown here is the most popular model in the current SEAT range - the B segment 'Ibiza', shown here in its forth generation model. The Ibiza is a co-developed model with the VW Polo on the B-Segment PQ24 platform. The model presented is the MkIV Updated 5-door hatchback, an ideal vehicle for families with young children, or as a second car, due to it's compact size, good visibility and maneuverability.
Laser S hatchback -- quite the head turner in its day. I remember seeing one on the streets of Melbourne on a visit in 1995, but I don't remember seeing any when I returned in 2000. Maybe not a big seller in Oz?
