Admittedly the only definite feature visible for S3 is the bonnet/grille, but it has tints so is probably correct. The "Series I hero" car is a 1966 S1 4.2 litre. -- Last edit: 2011-06-14 19:06:02

Lion_200005 ◊ 2021-01-23 08:23	i ve watched this movie years ago but i still cant understand what kind of brainless weirdo wanker will load his own classic collection with explosives just for killing a bad guy which just want him to die.it is a real worthy deal?

GodzillaFan54 ◊ 2021-03-30 14:46	Is this meant to be the equivalent to Jan-Michael Vincent's Mustang in the original?
