Remember "The Saint" (late 70s TV show) - today I saw a white XJS with the number plate ST 1 today, just like on the show.
I've still got my corgi model of this car somewhere - loved it - it was this car that got me interested in jags all those years ok
Bet the plate is worth a lot more than the car!

I thought that the car in the tv series was a Volvo (P1800)?

It was, the XJ-S was in "Return of the Saint", starring Ian Ogilvy.

Great series (although looks very dated now), I only ever watched it for the car!

I thought that ST1 was still owned by the TV production company?

My XJ-S V12 was also white (pretty rare as I believe it was only available as a special order colour - although I dare say that someone will correct me on this?)
