Good looking Scorpio in 'Patriot Games' scene

Post by zxr250cc »

Hi all,

I am guessing many have seen this movie. I am watching it on a streaming site and noticed a good looking Scorpio in the scene where the Royals' limo is attacked in London. It is a light metallic blue one. Nice looking car.


And about a minute or so later they have a Sierra in traffic with an ambulance scene.

Hi all,

Yes, I knew that: the Granada/Scorpio are the same In my mind as that was the donor vehicle before Federalization and they basically look the same.

Good looking cars, either way. (Until the change to the following generation.)

What Sierra had the little flip up butt spoiler on it? That is the version in the movie. XR4i?

Hi all,

I may have seen a Cosworth Sierra in the movie as the spolier on it looked liked this one:
