It appears to be a 1979-80 Ford Van cause the pre-'79 Ford vans had the rounded headlights while the 1979-91 Ford vans had the squared headlights. |

Wait, how were you able to read the license plate from this image? Unless you saw another scene that showed a closer shot of the plate? |

This is a British ambulance that was used by Heathrow Ambulance Service during the 1980s and early 1990s. http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4117/4751071189_8f1b65f1bb_o.jpg That plate in the movie is a fake New York State plate. The Dodge next to doesn't come under any of its 2 regs (so assumed to have been destroyed). -- Last edit: 2012-06-27 23:54:15 |

Nice work. Tim Burton's Batman (1989) also used an ambulance from the same company: /vehicle_50780-GMC-Vandura-G-35.html -- Last edit: 2012-06-27 23:27:21 |

I couldn't get that one to come up in the DVLA either, so I guess scrapped. |
