Bits of it here if you want to cut to the chase:

Great film.

I have an XM. My friend's dad has an Audi S8. His sister has a Merc of similar vintage (but sadly not a 6.9). My stepbrother has just bought a blue Peugeot 406.

All we need is a BMW 5-series and a couple of 605s and we're away

Excellent! Made me cringe when he put the dent in the side though. Pleased to see there were some estates.

Funny you should mention that Peter, after the S1/S2 hybrid got finally rammed, Leanne just said to me "I don't know how you can watch this, all those XMs getting wrecked, what're you going to do??".
I said "Its not so bad, new bumper, new wing...".... then they shot out the back window and started riddling it with holes

The chase with the big silver V is still to come

Love this film, you'll never see better action shots of XMs in action in their native environment!

BTW you said there were some estates Peter, where were they, I seem to have missed them.

They were mostly parked, one or two in motion - or it may have been the same one!

I couldn't watch it - there was no signal on Channel 5!

I couldn't watch it either, we don't get channel 5 (or cable) here in Otley .

Can't wait for the 21st century to get here.........

(We've plenty of water here today though........highest suspension setting allowed me to boldly go where others couldn't.......maybe XM ownership is not so bad after all )

Hi Ciaran

I wasn't refering to the film but the video clip.

I didn't need to watch it - I have the Double Disk Delux Special Edition of the film on DVD so can remind myself of the Fantastic cash scenes anytime!

But that videoclip wasn't all from Ronin ......

I've owned a 450SEL 6.9. It was an utterly awesome tool, but the manic thirst got the better of me quite quickly. The Ronin chase is all a bit silly, I doubt if even a 24V XM could honestly live with a 6.9. Great to see an XM being put to better use than John Thaw could manage, though!
