Millions of other 126s throughout the film, but never good enough to capture - pretty well all of them have similar black plastic trim and bumpers - I don't remember a chrome bumper.

130rapid ◊ 2013-09-27 00:31	AFAIK (from 10/1990 126p's price list) 13" wheels were an optional equipment, highly priced, that's why rare. Also, the owners handbook stated some FSM 126p 650E samples had rack & pinion steering.
Weasel1984 ◊ 2013-09-27 00:41	So are we going with 1990/91? It might fit to color.
130rapid ◊ 2013-09-29 11:49	No. It could be every year with BIS production. I'm not sure about MYs when 'White Corfu 224' available. Some pages state 1992-1994 period but I was driving 10/1990 126p in this genuine color.
