In [[Grand Theft Auto 2]], the Benson is a [[Vehicles in GTA 2|sports car]]. It is suggestively based on the [[wp:Mercedes-Benz 300SL|Mercedes-Benz 300SL]], evidenced by the Benson's similar body design, as well as its gull-wing doors and its name being similar to the Mercedes-Benz car brand. The only difference is the 300SL does not feature split frontal and rear windscreens, as the Benson has.

In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], the Benson name was applied to a very different type of vehicle: a van.  This version of the Benson resembles a 1978 or 1979 [[wp:Ford E-Series|Ford (E-Series)]] cube van with a "[[wp:luton|luton]]" cargo compartment. In San Andreas, it is available in several different designs, and appears in red and blue body in Vice City Stories.

Line 26: Line 21:
The Benson in GTA San Andreas has the wrong engine sound, as it makes a heavy truck sound but should make the light/medium truck sound. In the PC version (v1.00), this can be fixed by swapping the shape and texture files with the [[Yankee]] in IMG Tool 2.0 [http://www.thegtaplace.com/downloads/file.php?id=552], and then doing the same for the handling (in handling.cfg), colors (in carcols.dat), names, and other files.
