THE greatest car chase ever created by the film industry?

Who wouldn't sell a limb and several organs to own this beastie??

I read this a year or two ago, it is a good article about how the car was kept out of the spotlight by its owner and his father for many years. Having read the article it seems almost ashame that he has decided to sell the car but I suppose the value of the car eventually outweighed his attachment to it.

I was kind of gutted it finished at 3.4, would have been more fitting to finish at 3.5 given the sales history

One of my favorite movies.

Although for me the coolness factor of McQueen has taken a big nosedive after reading a couple of articles about his wife/girlfriend beating...

I'd never heard about this, Sean Connery has gone on record admitting he hit his first wife, (apparently doesn't matter if it's with an open hand??) Coincidentally you can buy 007's very own Jensen CV8 if you have a spare £135K knocking about.
