Re: A8 in the movies

[Wolff <quattro200@earthlink.net>]

Actually, there were probably more than one car, each modified in a
different way for different scenes. A few years ago I saw 4 red Jaguars
that had various modifications in a warehouse complex. They were being used
for a movie (don't remember which one). One was used exclusively for
interior shots, so the interior was clean, but the outside was rough.
Another was gutted inside and had 4 shock absorbers per corner on raised
suspension. This one was for "jump" scenes. You get the idea.
