Banning Classic Cars

Post by tigerman7347 » Thu Nov 22, 2012 9:09 pm

I see the Mayor of Paris has plans to outlaw Classic Cars in the French capital by September 2014. All pre 1992 vehicles. Mon deiu. What next?

The only thing that constantly bugs me about that film is that I just know that at the speeds quoted, theres no way the pigeons could get out of the way.

Great film just ignore the pigeons-spoilt it for you now.

Does anyone fancy doing a Tiger through London?

It was actually a 3 speed mercedes car driven by the director with a gimble mounted camera low on the front bumper, the sound track was added afterwards. Spoils it a bit when you know that.

Did the judge know that or was that a stunt too?

Even if its all fake its still a pretty cool film.
