"License to Kill" .. Timothy Dalton as 007, its Bonds mode of transport in the beginning of the movie, before Felix is fed to the sharks.

Vehicles featured included several Kenworth W900B tanker trucks; a Rolls Royce Silver Shadow and Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II; a Lincoln Continental Mark VII LSC, James Bond's hire car in Key West; Sanchez' silver metallic Maserati Biturbo; a 4-seat high-wing single-engine Cessna 172 Skyhawk airplane, a Cessna 185 seaplane and a 2-seat tricycle Cessna 150 airplane; a Piper PA-18-150 "Super Cub" crop-duster float-plane and Piper J-3 "Cub" airplane; Aerospatiale 350B A-star and US Coast Guard Aerospatiale HH-65A Dauphin helicopters; a Harbour Pilot's boat; a black and yellow two-seater Shark Hunter submersible (mini wet submarine) as seen before in The Spy Who Loved Me; a Wavekrest remote-control Sentinel underwater exploratory submersible; Sharkey's fishing boat Pa Ja Ma; a Cigarette 1 Cafe Racer; the WaveKrest marine research vessel; and an electric golf-car at the Olimpatec Meditation Institute.

TRIVIA: Bond's Lincoln Mark VII has a front Florida license plate; that state only has rear plates

I know it's a French helicopter but I believe it's "Dolphin".

That's a great list. How many times have you watched these?

The Marks are still exploding on the scene like this coil converted Mark VII in Drive Angry with Nicolas Cage. I find it listed as a 90 but it has 88 -89 turbine wheels mounted on it.

A LONG story, but the '79 MK V I had had a trashed carriage top which I ripped off (1/8" fiberglass glued to roof) and welded / bondo'd in the factory cover pcs. over the portholes, repainted the roof, so the car was all black.
A couple yrs. later the rebuilt carb I had on it went south and I sold the car rather than put any more $ into a car with >240K mi. on it.
~ a yr. later there was a (diet?) pepsi ad on tv that had 4 "mobsters" getting out of a black MK V
WITH NO PORTHOLE WINDOWS walking up to a diner, and in the end the car blows up.

I always wondered whether that was the same car - just never saw another V w/o porthole glass and no carriage top. :dunno:
