Hopefully most won't be too easy as it was never imported to US...

It's got a "Lancia" look.

Did the aftermath require a series of shots?

Nothing too special - that coast road is a fast nicely sweeping road through loads of tunnels and the guy was simply flying while looking around to talk to everyone in the car. I was impressed by the car and also by the fact that we actually didn't miss a curve and end in the sea. It transfixed me for 50 miles
The road was actually pretty fast if you knew it. A very good friend of mine (also a 914 owner) used to know that road very well. He was the president of the student union at our college and he used to drive the Ford Transit vans the Union had (like Econolines). They were fitted with the circular graph type speed recorders ('tachygraph' or similar IIRC).
On one occasion we were returning from a concert in Liverpool and the graph sheet recorded against the end stop for the entire road, except one time when it dropped to zero for some stop lights.
