In A View to a Kill, James Bond uses a Renault 11 taxi during the opening chase through Paris.
The car is a Renault 11 taxi with its roof removed in stages as Bond pursues an assassin across the city. The sequence is deliberately comic and destructive, with the battered hatchback continuing through traffic after losing its roof and part of its bodywork.
The Renault 11 was a compact hatchback related to the Renault 9 sedan. Its appearance in the film reflects the ordinary European traffic surrounding Bond’s much more exotic vehicles elsewhere in the series.
Viewers sometimes identify the taxi as a Renault 5 because that model was also a famous small Renault of the period. The Bond car, however, is the Renault 11, and the damaged stunt vehicles were prepared specifically for filming.
