Favourite car from a TV series

Post by Z4M-2006 » Sat Jun 03, 2017 8:25 pm

I havent seen it in the flesh for a few years now. But its in a container in Cheshire.

It was looking very sorry for itself last time i seen it,but plans was to either restore or sell in Auction.

The car was bought with no knowledge of what is was,subsequent chassis number checks with Jaguar and Broadspeed bought the cars history to light.

This is not quite a car but too many nights in my childhood were spent pretending to drive this thing...

I used to love watching the spy series on usually ATV such as The Protectors, The Persuaders, Department S (and the spin off Jason King) as they all could be guaranteed to have some nice cars.

One of my favourite programmes in the early 70s was Hadleigh about a modern day Yorkshire landowner. He had a Monteverdi which was so exotic at the time and you can catch a fleeting image of in the YouTube film above. There was also a yellow Stag that featured in many of the episodes (the main star Gerald Harper also had one in real life and I can remember him being interviewed on Pebble Mill at One about it) God, I'm so old :roll:
