Hey.

I dont suppose anybody knows the name of the Alfa Romeo that Bond steals from the German woman (who goes to the pay-phone) in "Octopussy"?
I really like that car for some reason, and was just wondering what model it was.

I'm sure it's not an Alfa Romeo, but the cheaper cars of this company. In this case an Alfasud Sprint

Agreed, I love the fact that he hardly even bothers arguing with her. The resulting chase is also quite good.
