I was watching the movie "A Clockwork Orange" last night, hadn't seen it in 20 years. Noticed when Alex (Malcolm McDowell) and his buddies are driving along in a futuristic car, it's got a really low, sharp hood. Alex refers to it as the "Durango-95".

Sugar scoop headlights (maybe pop-ups) that flow into the raised fenders, and a bubble windshield. I think the scene was just filmed in a studio with a matte or moving screen behind, unfortuantely no profile shots of the car. Anyway, at first it appears to be a McLaren or Lola replica, which would be funny because there are 4 people in a 2-seat car.

 

A quick Google search found the name of the designers / builders - Adams Brothers and the car name is M-505 Probe-16. 3 real ones were built in the late 60's Early 70's, although Corgi made many more toy sized.
