So who here thinks they can identify the two Harley-AMF bikes in this movie? -- Last edit: 2020-01-22 19:41:39 |

Take your pick;![]() The Rolls-Royce look-alike, or the Volvo 145 station wagon? |

Freeway scene:![]() I kind of regret not capturing the Opel on the far left of the screen. |

Yeah, I was thinking of the Triumph Mayflower or similar cars. |

Silver Dawn, 4257cc, 17 feet long. Mayflower, 1247cc, about 11 feet long. There is also a possibility that it may be a Bentley MkVI, same car but very few sold in lhd form, whereas most of the Dawns were lhd, although this appears to be a right hooker. There is no badge in the centre of the bumper, it should be either the Bentley Winged B, or a Rolls-Royce badge in a square housing. A twin exhaust system was fitted on the 4566cc engines, no sign of that, so presumably the smaller bore engine fitted. The small boot version, which this is, could be bought with either sized engine, depending on its year of build. -- Last edit: 2020-01-22 20:37:29 |
