How many cars?

#1 Post by Hawaii Winds »

Aside from the cars that were a part of Robin Masters estate, how many other cars did TM drive? I distinctly remember the older Jaguar that he drove, his head was above the wind screen as he drove...funny

He drove Rick's Mercedes, the Ferrari he had in Italy during Italian Ice, The VW Bug he had when he started his PI career, Carol's car that he considered buying, and I *think* TC's van.

I read somewhere that the studio had to alter the Ferrari seating to accomodate TS's height.

Also the King Kamehameha Club Wagoneer, the clunker he bought in Blind Justice (I believe) when Higgins confiscated the Ferrari

I think he drove the girls car in "L.A", as well as the big rental car when he was posing as the Biographers assistant in the Howard Hughes type episode (sorry episode title escapes me), the Jimmy.

Interesting topic, I reckon there would be quite a few more.

I always liked the blue jeep Thomas drove in season one's episode "Adelaide."

Has the MGB been mentioned? That was a nice one.

There were several rental cars used in The Love-for-Sale Boat (5.17) as he drives around California looking for "Mac". He gets a lemon with each car rental and then when back in Hawaii he doesn't rent a car but takes the whole bowl of lemons with him into the taxi.

Oh, don't forget the talking Omni (or Maybe it was a Horizon)!
