One of the best ever British-based movie car gags (perhaps the only British-based movie car gag, come to think of it) has to be the Daewoo/Vauxhall/Opel setup from Mike Basset: England Manager. Mike, the shock England boss appointment, finds that his old assistant, Lonnie Urquart, has become a dodgy used car salesman, who will only be lured back into football if Mike buys a Daewoo from him. That's fine, because, of course, it's “a re-badged Vauxhall Astra.” Sure enough, it promptly breaks down in plumes of smoke. The brand-based japery continues when Lonnie is given a foreign rental car during the world cup: “I asked for a Vauxhall Omega and they gave me this, an Opel! I mean, what's an Opel when it's at home?” |

Sandie, to be honest this vehicle was based on Opel Kadett. |

The Astra MK2/Kadett E is one of my most favourite cars  (yeah I know ha ha) so at least the Nexia has the same shape, that I like.  |
