Not quite true - It's an 88

The (visible) cars were all RHD and on the correct (Left) side of the road. They even tried hard to pick beaten-up "Australian" looking vehicles to scatter along the street. The giveaway that it was not actually shot here was the pine trees and slightly over abundant "Torquay" "Bells Beach" signs stuck up everywhere. It distinctly looks like the northern California or Oregon coastline (minus the driftwood - for those who are familiar with that region).

YouTube - Point Break - Final Scene

Blood Diamond, plenty Landies in there and the Aussie movie The Odd Angy Shot got a few Army 2As and some Acco shots, the gods must be crazy is without doubt the best, the bit where he has to bail out to close a gate while shes tottling off down the track at idle, there is grounds for a budding young writer to come up with a bloody funny movie with this sort of stuff

Can't remember the name of the movie, had Roger Moore and Richard Burton in it, and a load of other Pommy luminaries. They were mercenaries, and there were a number of lightweights featured as well as RL Bedfords.
