FORD TAUNUS

Contributed by: The Complete James Bond Movie Encyclopedia by Steven Jay Rubin

The car, carrying Jaws (RICHARD KIEL) and a group of Stromberg‘s (CURT JURGENS) thugs, that chases Bond (ROGER MOORE) and Anya (BARBARA BACH) on a Sardinian highway in The Spy Who Loved Me. Using the Lotus Esprit‘s defense mechanisms, Bond lowers a back panel and sprays the windshield of the Taunus with a cement mixture that blinds the driver and forces the car over a cliff and into the roof of a peasant’s house. Note: One of the thugs is British stuntman George Leech, who can be seen firing at Bond while hanging out of the Taunus’s window.
