The cherry red 1980 Mercedes-Benz 450SL convertible has 119,000 miles, leather seats and a V-8 engine. It also was driven by actor Patrick Duffy. Charles Halt, 72, says the vehicle he keeps carefully guarded in his Weeki Wachee garage was the original car used in the Dallas TV series.

Halt bought it in 2003 from his uncle, Richard Egan, who worked in the wardrobe department for the show

One of these features quite heavily in BBC1s 'Waking The Dead' Boyd's Audi A6 2.8FSI
This series a blue one, last a silvery blue and the one before that a silver one.

Holy Thread resurrection....

Was following an A-Team van earlier and got me thinking how has TV become so crap these days that we dont have iconic cars on the big screen? or the small one either...

James Bond aside - because thats just a thing..
John Wick and his Shelby

But what else has there been recently that isn't a rehash of something from the 80's /90's
