    nope. Not KITT.

    That was a lorry, or truck as the Americans refer to them.

    No I think it's the car from a film called "The Wraith" from 1986 with Charlie Sheen. (I know I'm sad!).

    Oh and the name of the car in the film was Turbo Interceptor but I believe it was a protoype based on the Dodge Daytona. Styling looks cheap and awkward now but at the time as a kid I can remember seeing the trailer for the film and thinking it had come from another planet!
