Yes, four of them in the opening sequences of the X Files. All used as taxis outside Mumbai airport. All four dark green (Cameron perhaps) with almond roofs and side pillars. Series one bonnets with S wheel trims.

Nice to them all

I'm a big x files fan and I don't remember this. Is this the series they're showing on tv currently?
 
Yes, last night's episode where the huge chap gets out of one the Nadas, and goes into Mumbai Airport and is followed by a legless beggar. It's the series where Mulder's not about and they have the Terminator taking his place.

Season 8, Episode 10 - Badlaa.

It won't really be Mumbai airport as x-files was filmed mostly in Vancouver... The cars will be chosen to look "foreign" to American audiences.

I doubt such a complex car be at all desirable in India. A taxi of the time would still be the locally made Morris Oxford derivative.

A P6 would be a very poor choice of car for a taxi, imagine a Sikh attempting to get into the back seat of a P6 let alone anyone over the height of 4 foot 10 :p
 
The bloke who got out of the back of it was about 30 stone, he did look rather sardine like in there.

I will try to get a still picture, but apart from taking a photo of the telly I'm not sure how to do it.

Here you go



One in main view with large passenger, one behind, one parked up behind, and one in the rear with the bonnet up.
 
I had an X Files experience.

A friend & l checked into a Vancouver hotel on about the sixth floor. Checked out the room, took in the view of the square outside & were sitting around for a while before we went out. Turned on the TV just as an episode of the X Files started. A few minutes in Moulder & Scully were checking a hotel room out & the camera cut to the view from the window. You guessed it.
"That view looks familiar, doesn't it. . . .? " :eek:

We found out later about the bulk of the show being filmed around the city. Spooky! :D
