E-Type in "The Shell Seekers"

[Jukebag]

Was looking on the imcdb page and came across a series 1 E-Type featured in a drama series called The Shell Seekers, made in 2006. Strange I've never heard of this series before nor the E-Type used in it. I assume it was shown on UK terrestrial TV.

Judging by the comments on IMDB it seems that we were lucky to have missed it!

In circa 2005, i took an early eve “ brisk” accross country run, in my guards red 3.2 Carerra, to Hertfordshire, to buy what turned out to be a Very down @ heel, dark blue / grey trim, 65 Series 1 coupe which was advertised @ circa £12,500.

The car had been used in that turkey of a film, “ The Life And Death Of Peter Sellers”, starting the lovely Charliese Thieron.
The daft / modern union jack badges that were on the lower bonnet sides, in the film, were still fitted.
The heater had been bypassed, the sills were going, the seats were knackered and more. It didnt drive well either. I offered £10 for it.
The car would have been on the books of a Film / TV car / bike hire co.
Not long after, i saw it listed in an auction and heard that it had sold.
I think the car in this film is the same one.
