Austat Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 An Italian film set in the UK, uses Mallory Park Racing Circuit in one scene: Cars include a Ford Corsair in one chase, followed by a larger chase featuring a Fiat 127, Austin Cambridge, Vauxhall Velox (which turns into a Cortina MK3 in some scenes) & a Jaguar Mk.X.

I can not find the full chase...... Thankfully🙂 I quite enjoyed those! A reminder of the good old days of films that attempted nothing more complicated than entertaining the audience. It also calls into question why SCHWEET DOOOD DRIFFTT BROOOS (and sisters) put so much effort into making Supras and the like slide about when American sedans on crossply tyres do it twice as well in factory trim. warch and eddyramrod 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghosty Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Yep, the Daytona is well known to be a kit - there were two used for filming. Ferrari asked them to stop using them and offered them access to the Testarossa, they said yes as long as they could keep the kit Daytonas to write them out of the show, which is where it gets blown up. But only an empty shell did - both screen cars are still out there. warren t claim and Barry Cade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it's light-hearted it would be hard to take seriously with Michael Crawford in it, I would be expecting him to get into some Frank Spencer style scrapes!

Police cruisers and old muscle cars keeping up with EVOs etc. They'd be lost at the first corner but I don’t suppose that would go down well with American audiences., where 2 litre cars are for school kids and turbos are the work of the devil.
