The Dude Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Help! Me and Three on the Tree need to rent a couple of Left hand drive pre 1985 cars for the shooting of the sinking of the Rainbow Warrior, preferably something French flavoured, but anything European is a -ok, we Want a Diplomatic car, Think 605 or CX or big Merc, RHD might be ok with one of these as I figure there are not that many choices, and two cars to represent Holland, basic Merc even a 190E LHD or something and another LHD car or two. Anyone have any leads? Thanks loads Ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SP450andLE Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I just had an idea... Why don't they use RHD cars then just flip the image? Sounds kind of a like a stupid idea but it could work... So long as there's no text in the frames that gets reversed haha /possiblelingpost 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoozin Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 You could try contacting someone like Bishops Garage in town (Frog specialist) I'm sure they'd be in the know for some weirdo French hand drive cars 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8Pete Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 605s didn't come out until 1989. 604 would be amazing though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8Pete Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Also, if you're planning on doing the shoot in about 2018, I might be able to volunteer a CX or two. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I know the fella that owns this LHD twin pot Visa but it's down in the south Waikato: Period perfect though, being a 1982 model. Less perfect and more RHD is my Visa GTi but it's not in new condition by ANY stretch of the imagination.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 Cool Guys, keep on looking Lhd Golf Mk1 4 door Dave???? I might have a ause for that, got any pics.
