I dont own it, i dont know where u would get it

It was on Telly the other Weekend!... I think after the footie!... :confused:

I think most DVD retailers On-line sell it for about a 5iver maby £7 not that s'pensive for a classic of british cinema!....

Though look out for the (crap)americanised (is that a word??) dubing of "You've lost him his No Claims Bonus!" to "You've lost him his Insurance Bonus!" and others!

Its the only film I own on LaserDisc and I've Never Ever owned an LD player!!!..

I caught the original Gone in 60 Seconds whilst pulling a sicky from work.

Absolutely cracking film and really couldn't believe the last 30 mins is nothing but car chase.

The orignal rocks big time. The remake is watchable at best.

However, I'd take the remake Eleanor without question.

This is the '67 mustang fastback you REALLY want:

Shelby GT500E Super Snake - 725 supercharged horses

"Carroll Shelby built only one 427 GT500 "Super Snake" in 1967, which set new performance standards for speed and performance at the time. The mighty G.T.500E Super Snake is a modern evolution of that legendary car.

Built for Shelby by Unique Performance, the G.T.500E Super Snake is the most powerful regular production Shelby (based on a Ford Mustang) ever offered to the public. Each car features a 525 HP aluminum Shelby 427 engine, Unique Performance rear suspension, Tremec transmission and many modern performance upgrades, as well as special badges and striping. With an optional supercharger, this Shelby churns out 725+ earth-shaking HP.

Only 75 total 427 G.T.500E Super Snakes will be built; each one receives a Shelby VIN and will be included in the next Shelby American World Registry. With its stunning looks, blistering performance and limited availability, the Super Snake is destined to be one of the most desired collector cars in the world."

That is nothing but pure FILTH on 4 wheels!

Omg i want one so much.

I thought the Super Snake was 750HP and had the same nitrous kit thats in Eleanor?

They done a program dedicated to the production of this car on the discovery channel, was such an interesting watch.
