Muppet, a single word response isn't conducive to getting a thread started but since you took the trouble to reply, I've just watched it again on the Sky+. As Charlize Theron and the gang drive up to Ed's mansion one of the boys notices an Aston Martin Vanquish. But ... after Charlize leaves, when she is talking to Mark Wahlberg at the van, Ed drives by in the background in a grey Z3 with the hood up.

40 posts and 2 months' membership do not qualify you for Forum Police. Muppet is a respected poster as is RobBruce who you had a pop at in the Ferrari thread. Wind your neck in.

Oh for goodness sake!

Muppets contribution is perfectly valid - one word or otherwise.

Hi,
Think the first film of 'The Italian Job' was the best, starring Michael Caine. The cars were fab in it. Think the second one was disappointing. The best movie on cars recently has been the animation film 'Cars'. Loved Luigi the motor mechanic.

The first Italian Job was the best...................I even had a 1969 MK II Mini Cooper S in white

Great!

Any scanned photos that you could post of it??

Gazza · Post by **Gazza** » Fri 30 Mar, 2007 13:36

Unfortunately not...................It was a ground up restoration that cost me fortunes, even renewing the light switches and ashtrays

Now when you say "loved"....

Think a certain Oxford Gruen loved the character Luigi in 'Cars' just as much as I did
