From IMDB goofs: The seats in Simon Skinner's (Timothy Dalton's) light blue Jaguar XK convertible alternate between a pre-2000 model year and a post-2000 model year car - the difference being adjustable headrests. I do not remember that the car is seen in another scene, so is this visible in these pictures? |

nope, the car on the pic is clearly post 2000 |

Is this definately an XKR? I don't think too many real life supermarket managers drive cars like this. -- Last edit: 2007-07-26 13:57:47 |

There are many things in this movie that are not like in real life ![]() The car had a XKR badge if I remember well (not very visible on the rear view picture), so it is probably a XKR. |

it is a XKR for sure. |

the XKR is always very easy recognizable due to vents in the hood and the mesh grille as was already mentioned before ![]() |

Actually it was, after George Merchant is killed and his house is blown up, Angel once again sees a smirking Skinner passing by the scene in his Jag (but since it's a close-up of him, you only see a little bit of the interior of his car). I'd like to point that in real life nobody in Britain could have a registered personalised plate with that many letters and only one number (or maybe the I is a 1)! -- Last edit: 2009-07-15 00:14:56 |

Hey G-Mann didn't a car like that appear in "Die Another Day"? in which Bond was driving new Vanquish when been chase by the Jaguar XKR but it had a machine gun in the back. Althought Timothy Dalton was in attending with his predeccors Roger Moore,George Lazenby & current bond at that time Perce Brosnan. |

Now for my fresh comments we remember he drove the V8 powered Vantage in THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS. Could he trade that Aston Martin for this Jaguar. We remember Jaguar & Aston Martin were own by Ford now seperate ways. Well his next car??? |

I quietly wish this would've been an Aston Martin V8 Volante like Dalton drives as Bond in The Living Daylights - before the hard top is installed by Q branch. Obviously 2 different cars, but it's a convertible when we first see it in TLD. Still, it might've been too on-the-nose for Wright, or he may not have cared at all -- the XKR does fine. |
