Yes please biggrin



On saying that, if they have done anything 'council' to it, then I will have to give the director a slap.
Don't worry, it's probably a MG Montego in drag....

I don't really mind, as long as it goes round some corners in the film and they don't crash it into a truck or anything daft.

Downside is no doubt chavs the world over will be hailing it as the next ultimate car.

Should see Supras a bit cheaper though biggrin

According to an ebay advert it's a replica based on an impreza, seems pretty cool if so but it's not cheap.

Amazing the majority off people who will watch that won't have half an idea what an RS200 even is. In fact most of them weren't even born when the fastest Reliant in the world was conceived wink

And not to mention the small matter of the RS200 was never type approved for road use in the USA.....so you can't actually license a real one out there wink

RS200 and Vin Diesel, all they need to get now is a plot and it might be watchable.

Finally a proper car in a Fast and the Furious film, I bet it still spits flames every time it changes up a gear, like all the other cars in those films, though!

There's never been a problem importing them into the USA, there's a good number of them over there.....Bob Howe sold a good number of them to owners in the USA direct from Boreham at the time when he was in charge of flogging them all off.
But you can't get them licensed for the road in the USA.
