Very nice article about the Basic Instinct II Spyker Laviolette's basman007!

I believe #011 and #015 were both involved in the Basic Instinct II movie, I don't know about the other two.

Here's another slightly different picture: "Ontime Automotive" on truck seems to be removed from the picture posted by basman007.

I uploaded the final moments of the 1953 movie Genevieve featuring the 1904 Spyker 14/18 HP Open Tourer and the 1904 Darracq 10/12 hp Type O Roadster here:

Both cars play an important role through the entire movie, so I've got more footage if you guys are interested

To respond to the demand for light cars, Spyker produced this prototype 7-hp twin-cylinder car designed by Joseph Laviolette in 1912 in response to a forecast by a director named Bienfait that it would be possible to sell 100 of them. But the rest of the board disagreed, and the project never went further than this prototype. It achieved some sort of immortality when it was featured in the “Tom Puss Tales” children’s books of Dutch cartoonist Maarten Toonder, in which Sir Ollie B. Bommel rides this car with his friend Tom Puss.



At 5 minutes into this part out of the animated movie "Als je begrijpt wat ik bedoel" from 1983 you can see the 1907 Spyker 7HP Two Seater.

"This is the English language version of the Dutch animated film "Als je begrijpt wat ik bedoel" It is the first animated movie to come out of the Netherlands. While it is is well known over there...it isn't very well known here in the United States. It was originally made in 1983, and was dubbed in English and given a very limited home video release in the U.S. in 1987. It also aired on the Disney Channel a few times around 1988 - 1991. Another English title this movie is known by is "Dexter the Dragon & Bumble the Bear". The movie is based off the characters and graphic cartoons of Dutch cartoonist, Marten Toonder."
