dsl ◊ 2013-03-18 19:07	Film set in 1978: goof noted on imdb: "When the family in the yellow Mini wait at the Railway crossing south of Picton for the Train to pass, an XD Ford Falcon is seen on one of the wagons. The XD was not released until 1979." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082464/trivia?tab=gf&item=gf1130264 . nzcarnerd wrote In a later shot in the movie there is a selection of Fords (Falcons and Escorts) on the train. They would be being delivered from the Ford assembly plant at Seaview near Wellington to the South Island. The Mini here is the one I am referring to as Mini B with 3* /vehicle.php?id=581431 , not the main one (Mini A, 5*).
