That's "Fire Truck" not just "Fire".

Can only be seen in one mission, it looks like they used the Fire Truck design as a base for this missile carrier. The funny thing is unlike the Soviets, the Ministry of Defence is not in the habit of parading its ballistic missles through the streets. Besides Britain only briefly flirted with land-based ICBMs in the late-50s when it built one test missile silo, since then submarines have been used for its nuclear contingency.
Citroën ID Safari

Grand Theft Auto: London 1961 (1999)
That's what it reminds me of.
Rolls-Royce FAB1

Grand Theft Auto: London 1961 (1999)
This is an homage to Lady Penelope's Rolls from Thunderbirds. However that was only a model not a real car.
Jaguar Mk.II

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
This silly tank doesn't resemble any real life vehicle (unless someone made a giant golden version of a MkII Jag with a turrent on top) but I guess we could keep it here for the sake of completism.
Ford Cortina

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
I'm not sure. You need to work out what 'Mangler' is a play on.
Ford Escort

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
That hadn't occured to me before. Although this is a pretty fast car, I thought the name was a reference to "Z-Car".
Reliant Regal Supervan III

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
Comes in others colours as well as the Trotters Independent Traders livery (see Only Fools and Horses) and without the roof rack.

No prizes for guessing what this is based on.
Fiat Multipla

The Getaway: Black Monday (2004)
One of the ungainly looking cars ever made, including waste-of-space SUVs.
Volkswagen

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
This design model has been carried over from the original GTA.
Jaguar E-Type

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
Obviously inspired by Austin Powers' Shaguar.
Austin Mini Cooper S

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
Comes in three colour schemes; red, red with a white roof and blue with a checkered roof. The last two are considerably quicker than the first one, maybe they are Mini Coopers, but all the cars have the same name.

Lotus Seven

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
Presumably an homage to the car Patrick McGoohan drives in the title sequence of "The Prisoner".
Morris ¼-Ton O-Type

Grand Theft Auto: Mission Pack #1 - London 1969 (1999)
My best guess is a Morris Minor Van.

Hanomag Sd.Kfz. 251

Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines (1998)


The most common enemy tank, appears in various missions as an enemy patrol vehicle and as a playable vehicle if you have the Driver. Armed with a machine turret that can be fired. If you click it with the question mark function, it says "SDKFZ 231" but this is incorrect because those had 6 or 8 wheels, this is a half-track vehicle.

Opel Blitz

Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines (1998)


Appears in several missions. Can be driven by the Driver when he is present. Sometimes it is driven around by an enemy soldier. Since it is full of flammable liquid it is the easiest vehicle in the game to destroy, one bullet from any of the commandos' guns will blow it up.

Volkswagen Kübelwagen

Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines (1998)

Mercedes-Benz L 3000

Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines (1998)


The most common vehicle in the game appearing in various missions, it can be driven by the Driver when he is present. Sometimes it is driven around by an enemy soldier.

In the desert missions the truck has a different paintjob:


This wreck of a truck (which looks similar to the L3000) appears as scenery in some of the missions:

Citroën 15 CV

Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines (1998)


Appears in Mission 15 "The End of the Butcher". Can be driven by the Driver. Two of them are parked outside the Nazi HQ as getaway cars to whisk away the SS General (who you are supposed to assassinate in the mission) in case you accidentally alert the enemy to your presence. Notice the little Nazi flags on the wings.

Two wrecked cars which the Commandos are hiding behind at the beginnin of the mission. They look like they might have been based on this design:

BMW 5

Grand Theft Auto III (2001)
To me the side profile of the car looked like a late-90s Nissan Primera. Frankly it really doesn't look much like a 5-series.
