Marvellous things these spel chekas aint lay.? What car was it they used? Was the film speeded up?What route was used? In fact,it does make for some pretty good viewing,especially when the driver has to take a different route to what was planned. Ought to be one done in London!! |

Wasn't it called C'etait un rendezvous or something like that. And didn't the director do the driving? And don't the geeks argue over whether it was speeded up or not?

If you love Paris (particularly in the 1970's), it's a must see. Spirit Level Films SLFREND02D. It's one of my treasured possessions and makes me both happy and nostalgic in equal measure. Last edited by johngee; 3 Apr 2012 at 18:09. |

I am gutted Alan all this time I thought the car was a Ferrari.If it was a sound track I am even more impressed that a missed gear was introduced as well, Still as I drive a 18 ton Merc cant be all that bad.
BTW Christopher Tate came by Saturday at Donnington and said hello. His first question to me was how is the black truck running. Hmmmmmmm are you lot talking about me behind my back.Got to go now and watch the film again. BTW BTW I bought a new copy of "Le Mans" mine's worn out Last edited by delta; 3 Apr 2012 at 20:13. |

can someone tell Arthur, know he's £4 up for the bottom two Arthurs wobbling his himself!
more worrying is his new found ability to write a list of jobs to do with a tick box and value . . . he did me for £20 last week |
