Still funny, but even if you don't think it is, the opening sequence with the Countach (and it's occupants) is brilliant!

The Sheik: My dear sister! I swear it!

Tell Him it's one of my favourite films of all time and he has nothing to fear from me.
Or anyone.

I'm a Pepper, he's a Pepper,
She's a Pepper, we're a Pepper,
Wouldn't you like to be a Pepper, too?

"Nice car, and cunningly designed not to look like a race-car, I'm sure the cops won't give it a second look"

Two of my three boys insisted they didn't want to watch this because 'it's just another film about cars'. The third was most excited. All three are now glued to it!! And even the gay one is enjoying any scene involving the girls and the Countach... I'm just admiring the 5 hole wheels wink
