Films/Programs featuring Ur or S2

[Tonybolony]

As title, anyone know of any Films or programs showing Ur or S2? (Other than the obvious Ashes to Ashes, and Wheeler Dealers).
I'm not back in work 'til Friday, and if I've got to watch any more of the Wife's Emmerdale/Coronation St/Eastenders............

Have a look at imcdb.org. You can search by brand and model. For example one entry for S2 coupe is this

I haven't actually seen it myself

there's a James Bond with a 200q, and Ronin with the classic A8 chase.

Ummm.... I think you will find that in the Ronin chase it is supposed to be an S8.

Still it probably has the most realistic car chase scenes featuring an Audi ever, even though it isn't really an S8 and it's a good enough thriller.

Ronin is a bloody good film!

No quattros in this but you could do a lot worse.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qds9Of4qw-M

Umm... what?

Yes...Ronin was a great film especially when i watched it back in mid ninties? Bought the dvd only few months back for some reminiscing.

I prefer to watch others drive mental though

Excellent- enjoyed that inspired bit of salesmanship from old Bob...
yeah Ronin is a good film... I didn't get manage an M5...but the first time I saw that film I went out the next day and got myself a (much humbler) E34 Beemer..a 520 24v model, tho' underpowered, it was a lovely motor...

They probably have used more than one car to shoot all the chasing scenes considering the aggressive driving style and the wreckage generated by it and you can see in some scenes that the cars have either been repaired or replaced (grills are different, headlamps fall out of the car but are there later on etc). On the actual driving footage from the movie stunts (I've bought the collector's edition DVD that has these extras in) I think they were saying it was a 2.8 quattro with a faked V8 engine sound.
