Might have been a tarted up AM by that company that does the E-types.

Or then again, who gives a st. At least it wasn't invisible.

The yacht (used in the film)had been taken into a german boatyard and the back end was in the process of being removed to lengthen it so more powerful engines could be installed.

Caterpillar (Marine div) financed the vessel in order to get the engine supply deal. Boatyard became insolvent and a court case ensued over the acquisition and subsequent disposal of the vessel.

Unfortunately due to circs, during the period of the wrangling over ownership etc, the vessel was ousted from the shed it was living in and was left unsecured on some adjacent ground and ended up being raided by local tea leaves for the not inconsiderable fixtures and fittings. A tramp was living on it at one point I believe.

It was sold at auction in the end for peanuts (back to Catrepillar) and they ended up selling for even fewer peanuts.

The German TV crews at the courthouse tried to interview me but my employers only allowed me to say "no comment". I beleive that was shown on German TV and I was left looking like a right ijut rolleyes

I was waiting for someone to past that!

T'was the only game I had for the N64 for 6 months & the only reason I bought the N64. I played that so much that even now I know where all the dudes are on every level.

You can play it on-line on the PC against umpteen competitors. Nice bit of weekend nostalgia!
