A little project for Heidi's website.

Do any of you out there remember seeing LRs in feature films? I'm trying to compile a list and I've got stuck at 4 :rolleyes: I'm not that worried about how good/bad the films are, if they've got Rovers in 'em they'll do for me (he he). You know how aircraft nuts just LOVE Top Gun, simply because it's got some great flying scenes in it (some people might say the Tomcats are the film's best actors...)

Roll up, roll up
 
Land Rovers in films?

You've got one of the best films every made, "The Italian Job", there's a couple of "Series" in Ace Ventura 2, James Bonds Die another day, The living Daylights, View to a kill and a open top Range rover in Octopussy. RR P38 in Eyes wide shut, Layer Cake and Tomorrow never Dies. And who can forget that Defender in Tomb Raider and the 101 they used as base vehicles in Judge Dredd!

As for TopGun, I agree! The planes were the Stars!

Well, my landrover has not been in a film (i dont think), however it was used to transport pearce brosnan around whilst filming a James Bond film a few years ago before we owned it. As it was owned by a company called Film 4x4.
This doesnt really help you, but i thoght i would just mention it lol.:rolleyes:
