I recently re-watched Ronin. Plenty of BX's to keep the spotters happy, plus of course the chase scene with the XM and Peugeot 605 and 406.

One of my favourites!

(Even though they do switch between S1 and S2 XMs in the chase...)

Debated whether to start a 'BXs on telly' thread but then remembered this one.

Watched The Bourne Identity yesterday, several BXs round and about Paris, especially during the (obligatory) car chase of course.
