That was "For Your Eyes Only", one of my favorite Bond movies.

So how did they do it in "The Spy Who Loved Me"?

You know the car always gets trashed in the Bond movies.

FWIW, my favorite is the Blower Bentley with the secret compartment under the dashboard where Bond keeps his "Long Barrel Colt .45" - but that's in the book "Moonraker", not the movies.

I think there'd be a market for re-makes of the Bond movies as period pieces. Film them the way Fleming wrote them, set in 1950s Britain, without all the techno-gadgetry extravaganza.

I think the stories could stand by themselves.
