In The Lost and Damned, the [[Dundreary]] Regina is designed as a lean 1960s station wagon with aftermarket wheels, low ground clearance and a faded body color. The car's sides resemble those of 1960s GM B platform station wagons, for example the [[:wp:Chevrolet Impala#1965-1970|1965-1970 Chevrolet Impala]], or [[:wp:Pontiac Bonneville#1959-1970|1965-1969 Pontiac Bonneville]]; it is more likely from the Impala wagons as it has a lack of lower creases; the black roof, however seems to be more typical of Pontiac wagons. The taillight and rear chrome design resemble those of the 1965 Pontiacs, especially the [http://www.moviecars.net/rental-581.htm Bonneville station wagon]; the front loosely resembles most 1961 Pontiac models. | In The Lost and Damned, the [[Dundreary]] Regina is designed as a lean 1960s station wagon with aftermarket wheels, low ground clearance and a faded body color.

The car's engine in TLAD also behaves similarly to various [[Wrecks|beater]] cars in the game, emitting a worn out engine noise, occasionally taking a noticeably long time to start, and backfiring through its exhaust pipes. However, the engine and horn sounds are taken from the [[Rancher]]. | The car's engine in TLAD also behaves similarly to various [[Wrecks|beater]] cars in the game, emitting a worn out engine noise, occasionally taking a noticeably long time to start, and backfiring through its exhaust pipes.

The Regina is seen in two minor variants - one with a roof rack filled with luggage, and one without. The vehicle is also designed without beater wear, and emits a more normal engine noise. | ||

Between GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories, the Regina's acceleration is modest, and its speed is severely lacking - with the Regina's front-wheel drive powertrain, the underpowered V8 struggles to move this behemoth. Handling is sluggish, the car suffers from obvious understeer, and the brakes do a barely acceptable job of slowing the enormous chassis. The Regina is not especially sturdy, nor capable of withstanding heavy damage, and is a generally undesirable vehicle. | Between GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories, the Regina's acceleration is modest, and its speed is severely lacking - with the Regina's front-wheel drive powertrain, the underpowered V8 struggles to move this behemoth.

Whilst the Regina still possesses average acceleration (0 to 60 mph in 10 seconds), the car can achieve considerably good speeds, with a maximum speed of an estimated 90 mph (145 kmph). Due to its heavier weight, the car is less nimble than its predecessors, occasionally requiring the aid of the e-brake in tight corners or high speed turns, similarly, its brakes can only do an average job stopping the car in moderate-to-high speeds. | ||
