Scimitar GTE car chase with George Lazenby

A clip clip form the 1971 film "Universal Soldier starring George Lazenby as "Ryker"; a mercenary commander and weapons expert who is commissioned to train an army for an exiled African leader.

There is some superb footage of the Reliant Scimitar GTE SE5 in the film.

I especially like this clip of the police chase where the police (in a Jaguar S-type) radio through to headquarters and say "We're chasing a mad b*stard in a red Scimitar!"

The car was registered GBF 474H and was liable for car tax back in 1997. Where is it now???

@fagAshLil1234

the dated look is the best look by far in my opinion, newer cars just seem soul less, nearly all cars of the 60's and 70's look cool.

Are any of you old enough to remember the Ford Cortina 1600 GT? I owned one, and it was the King of The Road on the M4 when I used to drive from Kew to Heathrow in 1970. I used to fly down the M4 to Heathrow, climb into my BEA Trident and then fly off to Malaga or Copenhagen. Halcyon days indeed.

I have the American cassette, but the British one is of higher quality (like this clip) does anyone know where I could find one?

That's a good clip to boost Lazenby's writing.

@enochsneed I finally got hold of Universal Soldier about 6 months ago.

This car chase is the only action in the whole picture! Unless you count frisbee throwing as action...

@BerlinBunker1 Funny you should mention the M4.

The final scene of Universal Soldier was shot at the M4 Junction 3 Roundabout.

@denberg2 I have a copy of Universal Soldier. It can be obtained online if you know where to look for it.
