Ahh, that had a mad car chase, IIRC. BMW 5 series saloon and Peugeot 604 - or 406?

Was a great bit of filming, at any rate, although the Peugeot keeping up seemed a bit "improbable".

it was a 406.

they were nimble little buggers, good handling, and the V6 option, although rare, was bastard quick.... especially in the coupe model, which was rather pretty... and quick, and under rated by many.. I enjoyed the hell out of my mate's one...   damn but that was fun...

My step dad had the 2.0 4 pot job...   nice enuff i suppose, but not a patch on the V6....

Local Taxi guy who sometimes takes me to Heathrow has got a 406 coupe. I remember thinking it was a nice car, actually. Leather interior and not bad looking. Felt a bit firmly sprung compared to the Omega and it's a 4 pot tractor, which isn't ideal.  :-/

I'm heartened to see it got the ES V6 not the nasty PRV one that my dad had in his Espace. ::)

The BMW in Ronan did have a girl driving it too, though  :-X

Thought so. Here you go.

Although I believe there was another sequence where the BMW
was used.
