FactA Škoda 100 shows up in The Unbearable Lightness of Being set in 1968, a year before the car existed.
The Škoda 100 and 110 were two variants of a rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive compact saloon produced by Czechoslovak maker AZNP (now Škoda Auto) in Mladá Boleslav from 1969 to 1977, succeeding the Škoda 1000 MB and 1100 MB; with 1,079,708-1,079,798 built (the page gives both figures) over its eight-year run, it was the first Škoda to top a million units. Engine sizes were 1.0 litre for the 100 and 1.1 litre for the 110. The derived Škoda 110 R coupé (1970-1980) was styled somewhat like a contemporary Porsche at a much lower price and performance, and the sporty 120 S and 130 RS were low-volume rally cars, none entered here. In the 1988 film The Unbearable Lightness of Being the protagonist drives a Škoda 100, anachronistically for its 1968 setting since the model did not enter production until the following year. Wheelbase 2,400 mm (94.5 in), length 4,155 mm (163.6 in), width 1,620 mm (63.8 in), height 1,380 mm (54.3 in). The page carries multiple citation-needed notices.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

Simca beat Fiat to market by three months with what was essentially Fiat's own Topolino design.
The Simca 1000 began at Fiat: Simca boss Henri Pigozzi picked one of six boxy clay models from Fiat's "Project 122".
The last Simca 1000 ever built, the 1978 Rallye 3, was also the rarest — just 1,000 were made in the model's final year, a quiet send-off for a car that had sold nearly two million.
To drum up buzz at launch, Simca briefly swapped 50 of its Paris taxi fleet's Ariane sedans for tiny new 1000s, making the little car a familiar sight on the capital's streets.
The PL 17's name is a sum: 5 fiscal horsepower, 6 seats, 6 litres per 100 km, kept a digit below the Citroën DS 19's.
The humble Tagora spawned a one-off concept, the Présidence, decked out with Connolly leather and electronics way ahead of 1981 — a built-in telephone, dictaphone, text-message receiver and a TV with VCR.
Talbot fed the Tagora's V6 old-fashioned triple carburettors instead of fuel injection — and the extra power briefly made it the most powerful French car on sale. Only 1,083 were ever built.
Switching the 96 from a two-stroke to a Ford V4 was such a closely guarded secret that Saab invented a fake company, Maskinverktyg AB, just to buy the new engine's parts without its own purchasing department finding out.
