Fake cars mostly - but who cares. It's still one of my favourite films.

Fake cars occasionally being towed behind a GT40 - but who cares. It's still one of my favourite films.
Fixed that for you laugh

Joking aside it's also one of my favourites, I have it on DVD complete with iirc a 12 minute 'interlude'

Yes - Yves Montand wasn't a great driver and preferred being pulled around by the GT40.

Excatly, can't Lewis doing a GP with a 15 stone camerman stuck onto his front spoiler but hey imagine the down force.
As a kid seeing that many many years ago it was as close as you could get to knowing F1.It may seem a little old fashioned and out of date but at the time it was brilliant especially the sound.
