I watched the original Gone in 60 seconds today. Apart from the poor acting I don't think i've seen a movie with more vw's in it. They even manage to roll an early type 3 fasty. Worth a look if you can get a copy.

if you enjoyed that, get "Bullit", with Steve McQueen. There's a VW in nearly every shot and his girlfriend drives a speedster. 👍

when you watch bullit, have a look in one of the chase scenes and you will see the mustang beiing overtaken by the same green beetle 3 times.

Yes i too watched the original 6 months ago. I actually bought it. That poor early fasty that rolls,was about 10 minutes before that side swiped by the mustang, very early on in the chase. Still, for the age of it, i think its a preety good car chase movie.

I still love seeing all the old datsuns and mazda's in the dealers show room.
How cool would they be?
