Ingo ◊ 2008-02-08 21:45	The Golf was the most sold car in Germany in that times (o.k., it the most sold car nearly every year since 1974 until now). Please not, that the most of them have German license-plates. And except the manilagreen 1977-model on the second last thumbnail all of them are too new for this movie. The green one right of the Buick is even a 1981/82-model. There is a simple reason for these many Golf I here: they are nowadays very cheap to buy. And they are the most common cars o the late 70ies, which are still existing in Germany. -- Last edit: 2008-02-08 21:45:22
CarChasesFanatic ◊ 2008-02-08 21:46	This was filmed in Spain so i doubt they got them from there, them all should be spanish.
Ingo ◊ 2008-02-08 21:55	I don't think so. The colours from the cars, especially from the Golf's were very popular in Germany in that times. And in Southern European countries white cars are much more popular than these darker ones. And the Spanish sun would have bleeched the colours much more, as from the cars in this movie.

Ingo ◊ 2008-02-08 22:11	Yes, this scene was made in Germany (others, too, for example with the Manta, the Hanomag, the LT and so on). The houses, you can see there, were built in the early 50ies. -- Last edit: 2008-02-08 22:11:53
CarChasesFanatic ◊ 2008-02-08 22:25	Yes those were filmed in Germany, but the ones with the Golf were all made in Spain.
Ingo ◊ 2008-02-08 22:27	Probably they brought the cars from Germany to Spain.
CarChasesFanatic ◊ 2008-02-08 22:29	I doubt it, these were filmed in Mallorca, too expensive to transport them from germany to Spain then to the island, they have to be Spanish. -- Last edit: 2008-02-08 22:30:26
Ingo ◊ 2008-02-08 22:35	On the other hand, I doubt, that they have found all these late-70ies-cars just on the Baleares. To pick the whole stuff up in Germany and bring it to Mallorca, probably would have been much easier, than to collect it in Spain.
Ingo ◊ 2008-02-08 22:36	So the Camping-trailers were all German made, too. I haven't seen, for example, French or British made ones. -- Last edit: 2008-02-08 22:37:17

They could got them from the peninsula, i dont think this was a big budget production for them to afford bringing the vehicles from Germany, but oh well, everything is possible.
antp ◊ 2008-02-08 22:46	Carrying these vehicles by road is not so expensive, it is not like if they had to make them come from USA
CarChasesFanatic ◊ 2008-02-08 22:57	There are no roads between the peninsula and the Islands
