Car w/ v. large windshield/screen - can't remember make/model

I remember coming back to ireland a few years ago & seeing an ad on the Telly for a car that had a really unusually sized WS. I live in the US & had never seen this car b4. Basically, if u were looking out of it, the glass went from the bonnet all the way up to where the crown of your head would be if sitting in the passenger/driver seat. I remember thinking that visibility in that vehicle must be fantastic. The make model of the car was quite modest, nothing on the high/luxury end. Any ideas which one I'm remembering?

Thanks guys, that's the exact one!

Were these like a special edition or something?
Do either of u know how well these took off, only see one on donedeal.

Any problems particular to the WS reported w/ them?

I think GM dropped them due to lack of demand..

Citroen offer the same feature on the C4 and C3 now.
