CougarTim ◊ 2009-12-19 23:07	Looks Volkswagen-based to me - the front fenders and the curve of the roof behind the rear doors look very Beetle-esque. I'm curious as to who built this, if it's a one-off or a kit.
Gomselmash11 ◊ 2009-12-19 23:15	Vanden Plas with Jaguar Grill? very rare for me. -- Last edit: 2009-12-19 23:16:08
Kazimann ◊ 2009-12-20 03:36	Could be based on a Nissan Micra K11
Ingo ◊ 2009-12-20 15:57	No, definetely not this Micra-mutation.
takumi ◊ 2009-12-23 14:13	Mitsuoka ?

PDMC ◊ 2009-12-29 17:10	The bonnet and front end show many features of Jaguars MKI, MKII and S-Type sedans. But the wings, headlamps are all wrong, the bumper looks like it came from an old Jag, but the grille looks more like it came from a modern S-type. The wheels are tiny and the car has sort of a fastback shape to it too. It's not a Jaguar. It looks to me like a mishmash of bits and pieces. It was probably created especially for the movie.
AMC man ◊ 2011-09-22 17:38	To long to be VW based it looks like a mix between a Jaguar a VW bug and an Austin fx4.
Sunbar ◊ 2011-09-22 18:48	Froim their shapes, the windscreen and front door glasses appear to be Jaguar Mark II. So I would say based on Mark II up to the B pillar.
tom11 ◊ 2011-12-18 02:36	Its not guaranteed to be Made for movie, I also don't see why it cant be a slightly modified Mitsuoka Viewt http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fa/Mitsuoka_Viewt_011.JPG in fact I think it could very well be one, only with a modified rear end and VW fenders, it also seems somewhat likely considering were it was filmed.
antp ◊ 2011-12-20 18:03	Unlikely. But not especially made for movie. Maybe a one-of or some other custom thing.
tom11 ◊ 2011-12-21 16:11	There have been a few VW Bugs custom designed with 4 doors, compare Link to "vbklub.net" could it be one with a Jaguar grill, hood, and bumper?
Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2012-06-19 14:03	The same car crops up in the Korean television drama "Ireland", which is about a young woman who returns to Korea after the Irish family who adopted her are gunned down in broad daylight by gangster/terrorists who sound like Americans trying to put on an Irish accent. Skip to about 11 minutes in and cringe. http://www.dramacrazy.net/korean-drama/ireland-episode-2/117808 "Ireland" was made in 2004, so this car definitely was not made for "Dachimawa Lee" and probably wasn't made for the drama either. http://asianwiki.com/Ireland
