RE: Bond drove a Quattro!?

[Mark Nelson <mnelson@brls.com>]

Did you notice there were two Audis he drove?  The sedan was an '87 or
'88 200TQ (film was released in '87) Sedan but I doubt it was a 20V.  If
you noticed later on in the movie he also drove 200TQ Wagon (same color
as my old '87 5000TQW I had a few years back).  Anyway, these definitely
had to be the best handling and most reliable cars he had ever driven.
Of course, just about any British car is known for spending more time in
the shop than on the road, but that's a different story.
