Default Xjs in movies?

Alright guys, can you think of any xjs in movies? The only movies I can think of is the black xj in the goonies and the xj police cruiser that went though that brick wall in gone in 60 seconds.

Ha, I didn't realize that. Lost by just seconds. But yeah I did notice that it didn't sound like the 4.0 in the movie. Sounded like they dubbed over the 4.0 with a v8
