1991 was the last year for the third generation models, so they were definitely off on that. This is a 2001-2002 model. It can't be a 1997-2000 model since it has the shorter inscription sign in the rear door, meaning that it is an E-Series and no longer called an Econoline. |

Ford changed the name emblems for the Econoline for the 1999 model year. They displayed E-150/250/350 (whichever version the van was) Ford didn’t stop printing sales brochures and documents with the Econoline name until 2001, afterward they used E-Series (which officially signaled the transition from Econoline to E-Series) You can look up any van made for the 1999 model year and it will have E-Series on the rear doors. |

What!? Aww man that means I incorrectly stated this for a few other vehicles Sometimes automakers are just so confusing when it comes to things like these. |

Back then, it was still the Econoline. |

It's funny seeing how much less I knew back in 2008! Looking at the thumbnail, I can say that based on the rear door badge this is a 1999-2002 E-150. It has amber on the tailights and on the IMDb page the UK (including Northern Ireland) is listed as a filming location. Perhaps this is a made for UK/EU model? |

I even learnt something new here everyday |

Not made for the UK as such, but privately imported and modified to meet UK requirements and pass the MOT test. |

Thanks for the clarification. |
