movie vws
more than likely been discussed before....
I watched 'almost famous' on telly last night - counted at least a dozen splitties in various forms driving around in the background, parked in car
parks etc - micros, single and twin cabs, sweeeeet  I thought they might
just have the same two or three just in different scenes but no, they were all different colours n stuff. Nice one.
Any other films you have seen with nice examples featured?
that is all....back to your business...

i remember in the ORIGINAL gone in sixty seconds.. the one made in the 70's, theres one scene where the mustang comes (supposedly) tearing onto the
highway, merging at about 100mph... well.. if you look in the corner theres a little red bug that looks like its going faster and overtakes the
mustang as it merges... it was hilarious..

Just watched the new version of "The Thomas Crown Affair" with Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo in it. Good movie, but the bastards left out the beach
buggy scene. How could they???
The buggy in the original film that McQueen drove was powered by a hotted up Chevy Corvair motor and the body is modified a lot. Very cool scene
showing him driving the buggy like a buggy was meant to be driven...
