Becomes a slightly different model when it crashes off the road.

Is also a much more different model in some of the rear projection shots...

For what it's worth, I have a theory that the scene of the Jaguar crashing is lifted from another source, as it happens in a seemingly different location from the preceding chase, the film grain is different, etc.

An excerpt I read in stuntman Mickey Gilbert's book years ago, leads me to believe that it's likely the 1978 made-for-TV movie Colorado C.I., as he mentions launching a red Jaguar off a cliff into the snow for that movie, but I can't confirm that, as the movie's impossible to find.

Interior shots when they are trapped inside after the avalanche are of a four door sedan with full size rear door windows
