| 1970 Dodge Challenger Death Proof (2007) |
A direct reference to the Dodge Challenger from Vanishing Point that is heavily used in the climactic chase, but subsequently becomes quite damaged The twist presented in the chase is that the Challenger features a stunt woman clinging onto the bonnet whilst it is rammed by the Pursuing Charger, meaning that a specific speed had to be maintained to prevent the protagonist from meeting certain death. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

| 1972 Ford Mustang Grande Death Proof (2007) |
A direct reference to Eleanor from Gone In 60 Seconds ![]() |

| 1971 Chevrolet Nova Death Proof (2007) |
A very good, yet very graphic, crash Those who have seen the film will know what I mean.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

| 1980 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Replica built on Holden HQ chassis Shaker Run (1985) | I think a better main picture should be used for this since it is the main vehicle of the movie, and the car is obscured. | 2007-08-30 18:31 | |
| Outlaw (2007) | Any car chases? I rather hope so since this appears to be an English film. | 2007-08-18 20:46 | |
| The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) | It has a similar vibe yes, but with less content and only a minute in length. | 2007-08-12 19:34 | |
| The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) | There is a car chase in London? | 2007-08-12 12:59 | |
| 1998 Audi A6 2.8 quattro C5 [Typ 4B] The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) | This isn't actually the main car used in the chase, with the car park stunt actually occurring at the start rather than the climax. | 2007-08-12 01:02 | |
| The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) | This was an utter disappointment, what I thought would be an epic chase scene that aimed to outshine the previous two installments turned out to be only a minute in length. A good amount of destruction does ensue, but it is an almighty waste of opportunity. | 2007-08-12 01:00 | |
| 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 [C6] Clarkson: The Good The Bad The Ugly (2006) |
You and me both! |
2007-08-05 15:00 | |
| Clarkson: The Good The Bad The Ugly (2006) | It was much more than that when it was first released, but Youtube will of course be inferior quality unless you "acquire" a DVD rip. Good to see you have seen the latest Clarkson DVD, G-MANN. | 2007-08-05 14:59 | |
| 2006 Toyota Hilux by Arctic Trucks Top Gear (2002-2013) | The specially modified Hilux in Top Gear's polar special race to the North Pole. | 2007-07-28 20:06 | |
| (archived) Top Gear (2002-2013) |
Top Gear triumphantly returned this week with a one off polar special in between series 9 and the upcoming series 10, featuring an epic race to the north pole with Jeremy and James in a modified Hilux against Richard on a dog sleigh. It was also the first episode to be shown in high definition. -- Last edit: 2007-07-28 20:10:24 |

| Transformers (2007) |
Saw the film today - good action movie but disappointing chase scenes The transformations must have been hideously complicated to construct though. |
2007-07-26 17:39 | |
| Death Proof (2007) |
I have seen the chase, and I am tempted to rate it the best chase scene since Ronin |
2007-07-20 12:23 | |
| 1974 Chevrolet Hi-Cube Van Pure Danger (1996) | Yes, it is. | 2007-07-10 18:22 | |
| 1979 Cadillac Eldorado Pure Danger (1996) | It is actually involved in a light collision, but nothing major. | 2007-07-10 18:15 | |
| Pure Danger (1996) |
Typical low budget Merhi/Pepin affair that at least manages to cram in a satisfactory amount of car action. There are no less than 4 car chases in this movie, but only the climactic chase is really worth watching as a Cadillac, GMC box truck and a van become entangled in carnage on the freeway. The scene ends with a trademark crash complete with vehicles implausibly flipping over amidst an explosion:![]() |
2007-07-10 18:12 | |
| THX 1138 (1971) | George Lucas's debut film, that is also seen throughout Star Wars in some shape or form. | 2007-07-10 16:16 | |
| CyberTracker (1994) | I can plainly see this contains a crash, but does it have a chase? | 2007-07-08 22:16 | |
| Live Free or Die Hard (2007) |
Oh dear that is very disappointing |
2007-07-06 12:21 | |
| Live Free or Die Hard (2007) | For anyone who has seen it, can you confirm whether there are any car chase scenes? The destruction sequences at least looked very promising. | 2007-07-04 12:36 | |
| 1985 BMW 520 [E28] The Peacemaker (1997) | As illustrated in your thumbnails, the roof is dismembered before suddenly reappearing in the final shot. | 2007-07-01 15:32 | |
| 1991 Mercedes-Benz 500 SEL [W140] The Peacemaker (1997) | Would it not be better for the main picture to be either the 5th or 10th picture along? | 2007-07-01 13:57 | |
| 1968 Volkswagen Sedan 'Beetle' [Typ 1] What's Up, Doc? (1972) |
"This is a terrible thing we're doing" |
2007-06-30 21:49 | |
| What's Up, Doc? (1972) | I agree, it is one of few successfully humourous chases. | 2007-06-30 18:27 | |
| Desperate Measures (1998) |
And they don't always need overdone CGI or special effects, which is mainly why the likes of Bullitt, The Seven-ups and Ronin are so appealing But the scene just lacks any tension for me - a similar "average chase in an average movie" is found in The Recruit for example which managed to salvage more tension using a VW New Beetle! |
2007-06-25 22:39 | |
| Desperate Measures (1998) | It's sluggish, unexciting, lacks real tension and the highway scene is abysmal due to its potential of having some satisfying accidents on the freeway when he is forced onto the opposite carriageway. A missed opportunity. | 2007-06-25 22:28 | |
| Problem Child (1990) | Brief and uninspiring chase occurs at the end, resulting in the car flipping over. | 2007-06-23 21:22 | |
| 1984 Plymouth Caravelle Short Time (1990) |
And how long does it stay a Diplomat? |
2007-06-10 20:25 | |
| 1984 Plymouth Caravelle Short Time (1990) | So when does the Diplomat appear? | 2007-06-10 13:28 | |
| Short Time (1990) |
One of my favourite chases, involving a disgruntled police officer who literally does everything in his power to kill himself |
2007-06-09 20:23 | |
| Hooper (1978) | Are there any proper chases in the film? | 2007-05-29 19:02 | |
| Hooper (1978) |
Wasn't really a chase ![]() |
2007-05-29 14:25 | |
| Hooper (1978) | And of what standard is the chase? | 2007-05-29 00:44 | |
| Postman Pat (1981-2013) |
This used to be my predominate childhood show, along with Thomas The Tank |

| 2002 Vauxhall Astra MkIV Hot Fuzz (2007) |
Also added an additional Astra seen briefly at the start of the film |

| 2002 Vauxhall Astra MkIV Hot Fuzz (2007) |

2007-05-12 20:08 | |
| Hot Fuzz (2007) | Quintessentially British take on the buddy action cop genre, that fortunately succeeds on this front. Unfortunately for the car chase front, we are only given a brief duel between 2 Astra police cars with very little note worthy action, which is a shame for a British film that had ample potential for a more gratifying chase sequence. | 2007-05-12 20:05 | |
| Car Years (2000) | It isn't at the exact same frame, no. The colouring is definitely different, but yours appear to suffer from some blurring troubles in movement? | 2007-05-12 00:06 | |
| Car Years (2000) |
I forgot about removing the watermark manually, considering I do it often for IGCD Anyway, here is a sample to compare:![]() |
2007-05-11 09:46 | |
| Car Years (2000) | I don't mind bent8rover, but a possible problem with mine is that there is a channel water mark over them all. I'll post a sample later on if you want. | 2007-05-10 19:56 | |
| 1999 Ariel Atom Car Years (2000) | Well, it seems that others are being listed as convertible. | 2007-05-09 00:34 | |
| Car Years (2000) | Unfortunately I hadn't seen that thread, but do you have The Rise and Fall of the Supercar? I can't find a copy of that one at acceptable quality. | 2007-05-09 00:08 | |
| Car Years (2000) | I was going to do this series but completely forgot about it...were these captured from TV? The only episode I don't have is the super cars episode. | 2007-05-08 16:09 | |
| A Touch of Frost (1992-2010) | Can anyone detail the chase/chases in this series? | 2007-05-01 23:24 | |
| Condorman (1981) |
Count me in -- Last edit: 2007-04-28 21:32:40 |
2007-04-28 21:32 | |
| Redline (2007) | Well, the initial IMDB rating of 3.9 looks rather uninspiring. | 2007-04-15 15:34 | |
| Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (2006) | I didn't notice any extended scenes? | 2007-04-12 18:05 | |
| 1997 Ford Econoline Grand Theft Auto 2 (1999) | I guess it is 2 stars actually since it is stolen and driven for a few seconds. | 2007-04-09 12:07 |
