The car is actually the Matra Bagheera and it dates back to the early
1970's.  Quite a gorgeous sports car --- it's very unfortunate that we
never got them here.

Some versions of the venerable VW Type 2 (Vanagon/Transporter) also
have an innovative seating arrangement - the driver has his own bucket
seat, and there is another 'twin bucket' seat, which seats two people,
albeit with less side support than a normal bucket.  Better than a
bench set, though.
