Some mute 35mm footage of the chase between the Aston DBS and Dino 246GT being filmed in the south of France for the first episode of 'The Persuaders' in June 1970....

I'd take a replica of one of those as well! I owned a Manta with a Peter Maiden 2 litre engine when I was a teenager. Great car.
There is a big love for Fiats over here and more than the odd 131 Rallye both genuine and replicas both these, one of each, belong to the same owner. In truth the replica is more a recreation as ever part on it is either genuine or a direct copy of the original including one of the last Guy croft built engines

Very cool. My dad had a new 131 Mirafiori estate in 1978, I must have got the love from that.

If you like a 131, Paolo Diana is worth a look on youtube. Better than most in a Mk2 Escort
