TVRs in film...

[Gavstar]

Didn't Patsy Kensit have one in Emmerdale? Can't remember what it was as I don't watch it. Was yellow though I think.

The Rick Mayall TVR Griff episode has recently been released on DVD under the title 'Rick Mayall Presents' and showcases the Griff and the lovely Miss Bonhan Carter abundantly!

Well worth getting as it's absolutely superb!

Patsy Kensit.......

Even if Liam Galagher has stuck it in her, I still would.

She was a lot better a few years ago...... when she has less miles on the clock, so to speak.

No, and pretty certain about that.

A BBC series in the late 1980's called "Pulaski" (I think) had a blue 350i (D435VFR) being shot at. I remember going to Oulton Park about a week later and seeing it parked up - amazingly there wasn't a bullet hole to be seen!

Awwww, I've always wondered what happened to that car. It was my cars sister...

If any of you guys ever watched "Dream Team" on skyone, theres been Tuscans and Tamoras featured in a couple of the series.

I'm sure there was a yellow T350 in there and she was standing near it! It was on when I was in the gym.

There was dark blue T350. The chap who bought it came to the West Yorkshire TVRCC meetings a couple of times.

Many years ago (about 13-14) the women of our house (mother + sister) were into EastEnders. Usual naff storyline was broken by the sound of a fabulous V8 bellow - Silver V8S appeared (albeit far to briefly) in 2 episodes. For those with an unhealthy interest in EastEnders it was a boyf of a character called Mandy ( a friend of Sam Mitchell)...

Edited to say - just read title -TVRs in film not TV sitcoms --doh!!

Yeah, i seem to recall waiting in my girlfriends mums lounge and seeing that, looked such a great car, even back then.

There was a Griff in an old series about a guy who knocked off married women cant remember the title (can anyone ?) but it was a raspberry 500 ??? sad arent we !!!!

The raspberry Griff is one of the early Griff 500 press cars and is owned by Gary Clelland (garyc3481 on her) - he was at the Griff Growl over the weekend.

It was Jilly Cooper`s mini series "The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous" and was on again recently: I caught my wife secretly watching it on Sky Plus but she was rumbled by the rumble of that raspberry Griff!

There was a Blue Cerbera back 10yrs ago in Emmerdale which was driven by the character Stev Marchant
Patsy Kensit did drive a T350 when she was in Emmerdale, though it was a dark blue.
The only yellow car I have seen in the soap was the yellow Alfa Spider.

bah it's Dom Power's Sag so nought to worry about for parts!

There was Blackball - the film about Bowling with Johhny Vegas that featured a red Tuscan.

Thanks for posting the link arebrec

They used our Sagaris and when the 'star' footballer person went to pick it up there was also a Tuscan and T350 in shot.

Here's the car when they were setting up for the 'villain' character to drive it away.
Not that he did...Ray had to do it.





And here's a shot of the 'star' footballer, whose name absolutely escapes me.......getting ready to 'shoot' buying the car from the dealer.
Ray is taking instructions on where they want the car driven and the guy in the middle is Ben, appointed by MGM to look after the Sag and believe me, he did a great job.
No one touched it without his say so.

Anyone spot the TVR's in the Girls Aloud video. I think the song is called `Something Kinda Ooooo`

....Mind you though it did take me a good few times to notice the cars in the video for obvious reasons !!!

Tuscan vert and Tamora I seem to recall

[Olav Bergman]

How about the cool movie "swordfish" where john travolta (as Gabriel Shear) drives around in a tuscan alot. See for example:
