In our license-plate-collector's forum we are wondering, why in in such a expensive movie the plates of the cars are such poor, worst made fakes. Anyways, in Bond-movies the locations and many more details usually aren't original either. Why the Bond-movie-makers are provoking such an amount of goofs and real mistakes? |
◊ 2010-06-02 10:23 |
It probably isn't anything to do with money, it's just the art departments of these movies aren't conscientious enough to make them totally authentic (they probably don't have a lot of time and think most viewers won't notice or care). Also, with the BMW 750iL in this film the space for the plate in the bumper is the wrong shape for a German plate (or a British one), it's more like the shape of a US plate, so they probably had to compromise. In Britain you can have square plates for grey imports and also motorbikes, does Germany do this? -- Last edit: 2010-06-03 18:02:35 |

See the first comment for background cars that need identifying. -- Last edit: 2010-06-03 18:03:30 |

about "background cars that need identifying" (I do not see the point of doing that if they are not listed), the last but one is the Citroën 2CV/Dyane (maybe the same one 2 pics before) that you deleted some time ago. Fourth one is a BMW E30, wasn't it listed previously? The white one (5th) is the Mitsubishi Colt that you deleted some time ago too ![]() -- Last edit: 2010-06-04 12:12:18 |

Just so I can put something else other than "blue car". The Citroen Dyane, BMW E30 and the Mitsibishi were already in the comments anyway (your comment actually) -- Last edit: 2010-06-04 16:58:23 |

Can't tell the blue car but there is a Daewoo Espero visible in the same shot. The "green sports car" is a Porsche 924. |
◊ 2011-11-15 19:22 |
Blue car (3rd thumb in the car park set) is Peugeot 504. |

Two interesting cars in Bangkok (standing in for Saigon): Blue sedan on the right, red sedan (Australian Ford?) behind it ![]() |

Blue sedan? I think is Toyota Corolla. -- Last edit: 2012-09-05 00:51:39 (G-MANN) |

Robi, I deleted the Mercedes W124 you added because in that shot it must appear for a fraction of a second (I know this chase scene pretty well) and it's hardly a rare car. It's probably the same car that's more visible here /vehicle_450437-BMW-7-E32-1987.html (next to the BMW E32) -- Last edit: 2012-09-05 01:09:30 |

And doesn't the Mercedes seem more worth listing than the BMW ![]() And more than /vehicle_223092-BMW-5-E12-1972.html which already shares the same pic as another -- Last edit: 2012-09-05 17:07:50 |
◊ 2012-09-05 18:03 |
What do you want - delete the BMW or list the Merc? At least the BMW was bit a rarity, being 25 years old at the time. Or shall we just let Robi list every car in that car park? By the way, this may seem rather odd but I've put the Mitsubishi Colt back up: /vehicle_529560-Mitsubishi-Colt-C12.html -- Last edit: 2012-09-05 18:17:19 |

I do not know, I do not really care, I was just surprised ![]() |
◊ 2012-09-05 18:32 |
I'm sure someone else added the BMW E12 and E32 (must have been Robi), I just replaced the original pictures with DVD captures. What I don't really like is when people add extra background cars using crappy pics. What Robi should do is make HD captures (he said he had the James Bond set on Blu-Ray) -- Last edit: 2012-09-05 18:38:45 |

Where was the parking garage scene filmed? Or were there more filming locations? There is a strange mixture of US-spec cars and cars, which were available only in Europe. The plates doesn't say anything. All are terrible fakes. |
◊ 2012-09-05 19:16 |
It was filmed in the multistorey car park at Brent Cross Shopping Centre, London. They must have brought in a load of LHD cars and made up those fake German plates for them. -- Last edit: 2012-09-05 19:27:26 |

Spotted a rare Maserati Quattroporte IV in the scene where Bond arrives at Carver's party, see thumbnails above. |
◊ 2012-09-05 22:05 |
While the Mk. V Quattroporte was very popular here, the previous Generations were very rare. |
◊ 2012-09-05 22:33 |
Interesting (also in the 7th photo as well). Is it a late trim Karmann Ghia?? Unusual for UK and looks Californian-style alloys - Empi?? -- Last edit: 2012-09-12 00:24:02 (G-MANN) |
◊ 2012-09-06 13:04 |
Late or latest? The bumper is not really identifyable. But it has the big indicators and the colour seems to be shantunggelb, so 1971 would be correct. The alloys maybe Empi, but the pic is too bad to take it as a fact. |
◊ 2012-09-06 13:19 |
Fairly sure UK KG sales stopped late 60s, so this would be another rogue import in this car park collection. |
◊ 2012-09-06 19:45 |
Err, are there ANY UK-spec cars visible in these scenes at all? |
◊ 2012-10-15 18:38 |
The highest level of the parking garage: By zooming in, it is possible to see some interesting cars: 1) Renault 11, same colour as in "A View to a Kill": /vehicle_2624-Renault-11-X37-1983.html 2) Volkswagen in two-tone paint 3) Ford Explorer, EU-spec 4) Porsche 944 ![]() |

The "deleted scenes" cars that have been submitted are just unused footage from the car chase scene (not quite the same as a deleted scene), not worth listing. |
◊ 2012-10-15 23:34 |
Okay, I'll delete them. Could we keep the Jaguar, as it is a nice car? |
◊ 2012-10-15 23:56 |
No, it's only seen for about a half second in that extra footage. -- Last edit: 2012-10-15 23:59:08 |

Mhm okay... |
◊ 2012-10-18 17:55 |
Pity that Ferrari 456GT and Maserati Quattroporte IV didn't get validated, they're both rare exotics and there's only a few of each on the site... |
◊ 2012-10-18 17:57 |
Indeed... ![]() |
◊ 2012-10-18 17:58 |
Would you validate them if Robi re-added them? |
◊ 2012-10-18 18:09 |
I haven't seem them, but even if very background rare cars might be worth listing |
◊ 2012-10-18 18:10 |
I posted DVD captures of them at the top, but of course they'd be more visible in a Blu-Ray capture. |
◊ 2012-10-18 18:11 |
That's very background... well with DVD pics indeed not worth listing -- Last edit: 2012-10-18 18:12:02 |
◊ 2012-10-18 18:14 |
I know it's very background but when you consider all the much more ordinary stuff that's background and still listed, like many of the cars in the car park chase (like that Mitsubishi Charisma that appears for less than a second in the film) -- Last edit: 2012-10-18 18:16:29 |
◊ 2012-10-18 18:23 |
I'd guess the Ferrari and Maserati were deliberate insertions by the producers rather accidental coincidences, so seem worth pages to me (despite being very background). |
◊ 2012-10-18 18:25 |
Yes, for those scenes they obviously wanted expensive cars, for the multistorey car park they probably just filled it with whatever they could find. And that Astra van got validated, the only real reason for adding that is the goof factor (car with UK plate in a scene that's supposed to be set in a German airport) -- Last edit: 2012-10-18 18:29:23 |
◊ 2012-10-18 23:42 |
I have to give these filmmakers credit. They found quite a the haul of USA spec cars in England and around. |
◊ 2012-10-18 23:49 |
They weren't looking for US spec cars, because there aren't any scenes set there. They needed left hand drive cars for the Hamburg car park scene (filmed in London) and some of the cars they found happened to be US spec models. |
◊ 2012-10-19 00:13 |
I know that. I meant that I'd assume that they would only find left hand european cars, not USA spec cars. -- Last edit: 2012-10-19 00:27:02 |
